About the psychology of the AEK players after the exclusion from the Champions League and the obligations of the “yellow and black” that follow, the Steven Zuberin his statements ahead of the match with Volos for the 3rd matchday of the Stoiximan Super League.
What he said to the Cosmote TV camera in detail:
On what is the mentality of the team after the elimination from Antwerp:
“Of course, after the game we were all sad, disappointed. I think, the next day you start to realize that you are not in the biggest event, but in the end there is the reality. We didn’t win, we didn’t achieve our goal, but our psychology is good. To have a chance again, we will have to win the championship.
About how easy or difficult it is for AEK to recover its psychology.
“Of course, it’s not easy to come back when you haven’t won in four games. But this is the reality now and we have to face it. What we need to do is get back to normal.”
On whether the Europa League group, in which AEK participates, reminds him of a Champions League group:
“It’s not a Champions League group, it’s a Europa League group and I’m fine with that. We will face very good teams and we always want to compete with the best to show our best. So now we’ll have the chance.”
For the Volos game:
“We always try to win. If Sunday’s game is the start of a winning streak, it will be good. But the most important thing is to keep the team spirit. To fight, like in every game, like we did even in the games we lost. This is the most important thing. Let’s be humble, keep our feet on the ground and the rest will come by itself.”
