Limnios snorted in his statements: “I had a hard time, I was in a lot of pain”

THE Dimitris Limnios returned to action with the national team jersey, nine months after cruciate rupture suffered in the match against Cyprus for the Nations League.

The international winger came on as a substitute in the 80th minute of the friendly against Lithuania and did not hide his emotion at what he went through, speaking to Nova immediately after the game.

“I want to say a big thank you to the people who gave me the strength to enter the field after a long time. I had a hard time, I was in a lot of pain, I suffered“, he quoted me tears in the eyes and added:

“I am here after a long absence, after an injury, I worked a lot. I want to say a big thank you to my team, the physiotherapists, everyone for the messages of support I received. I am back to continue my work. I want to be with the National Team, because we have a big goal ahead of us».

For match with Lithuania: “If you exclude the first quarter, we dominated without a doubt. We had chances, but we have to convert them into goals, because down the road when we play against stronger teams we will have a problem. We had a good performance but the goal is important. We keep up the good looks».

For OPAP Arena: “It is a very beautiful stadium, a good change for the National Team. The acoustics are very good for us, as is the grass».

For good atmosphere in the National: “There is fun, but to a limit. On the pitch and in training we are serious because we play for the National Emblem and represent 11 million Greeks».
