He initially emphasized that this was the first step to go even lower, he emphasized the need to repeat such events, he answered about the empty seats at “Dyo Aorakia”, while he added that basketball needs to stay away from any toxicity.

In detail what the president of the EEC said:



“It was a very beautiful match. It is the first step to go even further down. To understand that sport unites us, to celebrate together in a worldly environment”.

About the fact that “Dyo Aorakia” did not have many people in the quarter-finals: “When we try things, like the Final Eight, we’ll look at the good and look to improve the rest. Alas if we did everything perfectly. The main thing is to have security. We are fair to all groups. Beyond that, yesterday we saw a great match in terms of sportsmanship, between Olympiakos and Panathinaikos. It shows that basketball can breathe new life into Greek society and sports. Away with toxicity. Whatever toxicity there is, as long as we’re around, it won’t be on the pitches.”.

For the matches of the National Team in the World Cup qualifiers: “The games of the national team are the games of all of us. In everything we go for the victory. We invite everyone to fill the stadium. We are waiting for them at the stadium”.
