The statements of Giorgos Bozikas in detail:



For Olympiakos’ victory: “We are happy and proud of our players. We won thanks to the quality we have to manage such situations. Sloukas gave us a huge boost, he kept us in the game. There is no need to talk about his biography and what he has achieved in his career, having experienced many such situations. We made a cheap mistake at the end and it would have been a shame to lose like that.

There are no big differences in the groups. A lot was written after our defeat in SEF. In general, our presence shows that we have a stability and solid foundations and these have kept us here. We have all exaggerated ourselves in the team”.
