Lucescu: “I went to Lamia’s locker room and apologized”

Razvan Lucescu explained the reason for the tension in the final of the match with Lamia and made it clear that he apologized to the people of the team, while also talking about the impossibility of finding a venue for the final

In detail, what he said at the press conference:

For the fact that it is not known when the final will take place and also the stadium: “It’s a little face on the keyboard that does that (see central photo). An emoticon that does so then. The Cup is a very beautiful thing. Very special. Players dream of it since they were little. To claim a trophy. It’s strange that we don’t know that we don’t know when it will happen. This should have been settled before the year started.”

For the fear of episodes: “I’m not here to tell you what’s going on. You know that better than I do. Very well. There is – as everywhere – a risk. Greece is a country of emotions – it lives everything with a very intense feeling – which culminates. The police must be strong and the EPO must organize everything and have the specific date. To take responsibility. In the end it’s a matter of organization. And Greece can provide it if it decides to do so. There have been clashes between fans and in episodes in the European and other competitions”

Because it was done in the moment of tension: “My first reaction was because we are in our stadium. We are in Toumba, so the Lamia team should leave and not stay inside the stadium. We had the feeling that an opponent might be challenging Koulierakis who already had a yellow card. And there was the danger that if he reacted he would receive another one and we would lose. This story is over. I personally went to Lamia’s locker room and apologized.”
