Management courses from Almeida at AEK

The loss to Olympiakos in the regular season finale left her team bitter AEK and her world, but o Matias Almeida he received her coolly. The Argentinian coach wants to use this experience to become a lesson for his team ahead of the playoffs that start on Sunday with a very big match, this one against the pioneer Panathinaikos at the Opap Arena.

“Union” for the umpteenth time in the current season reacts incorrectly when behind in the score against the flow of a match. It happened against Volos in Rizoupoli, against PAS in Ioannina (2-1), against PAOK in Toumpa (2-0) and against Olympiakos the day before yesterday (1-3). In all these cases, the “yellow and black” took a… haste to equalize immediately, they played naively and with the exception of the game at home, they finally conceded a goal again losing the game. Only against Ionikos was AEK able to turn around a game in which they found themselves chasing the score (1-2).

Matias Almeida, who talked for hours with his partners after the last match, is determined to work on this piece, so his team can react better when a game goes awry. Because in the playoffs, where the level of competition is so high, there will probably be times when the “Union” will be called to chase the score and under no circumstances should it react impulsively. It will take more concentration, more prudence and not… full attack when there is time to turn the match around.

The preparation for Sunday’s derby with Panathinaikos starts today with a unique problem punished Domagoi Vida. THE Simos Mitoglou is the favorite to replace the Croatian stopper in his side Arnold Mukudi. He is now ready to play after his injury in the World Cup and Milad Mohammadiwhile o Levi Garcia he will be able to get 90 minutes after featuring in the final half hour of Sunday’s derby.
