Nikologiannis: “Two things troubled me from the appearance of Panathinaikos in Karaiskakis”

His latest news Panathinaikou transferred to News Bulletin 247 The Tasos Nikologiannis.

The reporter of the “greens” reminded that o Ivan Jovanovich has given today and tomorrow off to his players, who will return to training on Wednesday, in order to start their preparation for the match next monday with Panaitolikos on the Avenue.

“The goal is for Panathinaikos to get two wins against Panaitolikos and Atromitos and then see what will happen with AEK. As the situation is, you have Olympiakos at +5 and from there on or will be a little ahead or a little behind AEK with the start of the playoffs“, he initially emphasized.

Regarding Saturday’s derby at “G. Karaiskakis” and the 0-0 with Olympiakos, Nikologiannis emphasized that he saw the whole game again today, making the following remarks: “Panathinaikos was very bad in the second half. He lacked concentration, self-confidence and inability to cope with the pressing of Olympiakos, making many individual mistakes. In the first half, however, for a quarter to twenty minutes he had him absolute control, but he didn’t do the phases, which he should have done. At the same time, Olympiacos had the crossbar and the Kanos phase, which, however, might not have counted, if we had scored, for offside. The image of Panathinaikos in the second 45 minutes was problematic for me. I waited for him to react, but he just kept getting worse. Let’s say here that the presence of Puchach was very good, who did have some issues in defense, but offensively he had tremendous energy and tremendous confidence».

And he added:Two things bothered me: In the defensive part, the easy mistakes in the pressure of Olympiakos and in the offensive part, that many times he could have come out on the back of the defense, with Olympiacos very high, but he did not do it or he did it in the wrong way. He could have taken more chances.”
