For a serious mistake that proved to be decisive in terms of shaping the result, O Olympic after defeat in the tie-break against PAOK (3-2)in the second final of the Volley League.
“At 11-11, a serious mistake was made by the referees, a phase that decided the course of the second final. Voulkidis nailed out and the first referee indicated a block out, meaning that the ball hit Tziavra. This, however, did not happen, with PAOK taking the point at a crucial point. Instead of 11-12, it became 12-11 and the Thessalonians reached 14-11, then. However, there were still several phases, which justifiably caused the “red and whites” irritation, such as a violation that was charged to Hidalgo for a net. Despite the use of Video Check, we were wrongly tipped as there was no foul play, as shown by the telecast» say the people of Piraeus.
The coach of Olympiakos, Alberto Giulianiemphasized: “We knew the series would be tough. In the first set, we missed a chance to take it, but in the fifth set, a big mistake was made by the referees and the victory was lost. My explosion came because we lost. Everyone saw this very serious mistake! Let’s fight in the next match, nothing changes, we have to win three games».
On the same wavelength and Dragan Travica. “We have complaints from the referee, we are human and we can make mistakes, but there was a big mistake at a crucial point, it was a tough game. We hope, in the next games, we will be as we should be. PAOK is a good team, I expect high level volleyball and a hard game».
