Jovic’s winner: “He can set up the game and connect the team”

Dimitris Priftis described Stefan Jovic as a player who was missing a lot from Panathinaikos.

“He is a very good player, who has reading and experience. Can set the game. He is a very good player between the bench and the rest of the team. It’s ideal for this connection that is needed many times “, were some of the words of the clover coach in his statements ahead of the match against CSKA Moscow.

Details of what the coach of the “clover” said:

To return to action after the coronavirus adventure:

“First of all, happy new year. I wish everyone a happy new year. To have health from now on as much as possible. It was a “test” this 20 days since the last game we played with Lavrio. It was a very incomplete period in terms of training. Several players were missing and obviously after the significant period of inactivity the reintegration is not ready. We are talking about some kids who will be with 1.5-2 training sessions, to get into these games this week which is quite difficult “.

For the level of readiness in the “clover”:



“It is difficult for us and for the players. Mainly for the players, because they have to cope with the requirements that exist for the physical condition. As far as our work is concerned, 4-5 children trained well. Some others are inactive. You need to find a middle ground, it’s not easy. “But several teams are suffering from this situation.”

For the match with CSKA Moscow: “He has size, he has bodies, he has a game in the low post, he reads very well, he has chemistry. It will be a very difficult game. ”

Regarding the plan for the inclusion of Stefan Jovic in the roster:



“It comes from a time of inactivity, it is almost a year out. A progressive reintegration is needed. Let us come first, to see him, in what condition he is, how he will be in the first days and how he will respond and little by little, he will gradually enter training and games. We will see it day by day.

In case he will be good racing and will come in a good physical condition, he will obviously get in faster. He is a very good player, who has reading and experience. Can set the game. He is a very good player between the bench and the rest of the team. It is ideal for this connection which is needed many times. In the case, of course, that will be in good condition and will come at the right pace “.
