Details of what Mike McElwy said during the press conference:
On the course of Lincoln and whether he is motivated to get a point even in the last game: «We have great motivation for the match against PAOK, we are in good shape lately although we have consecutive games. We are optimistic, we came here and we have nothing to lose. This makes us a dangerous opponent. Clearly PAOK is the big favorite and we are a big underdog. Mr. Lucescu is an excellent coach and has built a very good team. Nevertheless we have nothing to lose, we have not always been the favorite in all games so we know how to play».
For how he sees PAOK and for the second place of the group: «PAOK is a very strong team, with an experienced coach, who has great success in his career wherever he was. It can beat us because it has the quality, PAOK is very strong. In the first match we were unlucky, because we lost some opportunities to take the lead, but now in Toumba things will be different.
This fight is a big challenge for us. I hope he gives us push and the atmosphere on the pitch to keep playing as well as we did in the previous five games. We have hopes, we have good psychology and I want to believe that we will stand well. Slovan plays in Copenhagen and that is difficult for them, because they have to win. PAOK has more chances if it beats us. He is the favorite both to win the match and to take the second place, but we will do everything in our power to stop them “.
For the possibility that Slovan will win in Denmark and PAOK will need more than three goals to qualify: «We expect PAOK to enter the match strongly and to put pressure on us from the beginning. We know that the first 15-20 minutes will be difficult, what will happen in the next match I do not think it will affect us either, nor PAOK. PAOK knows what to do regardless of what is happening in Copenhagen».
For his part, o Kian Ronan represented the Lincoln footballers at the press conference:
On the course of Lincoln and whether he is motivated to get a point even in the last game: «We really haven’t gotten a grade and that has disappointed us. We have played well so far in general. We have motivation for the match with PAOK and we will give everything on the field».
