Reverse for the first derby of the seasonthe one with her AEK in New Philadelphia, everyone counts on Olympic and Diego Martinez wanted to put the “red and whites” in the mood for this particular match.
“We have the first derby of the year ahead of us and we must be 100% ready. It is a very important game, in which we must appear prepared, determined and fully focused“, said the Spanish coach.
“We are coming from three wins in the league, we did what we had to do, but now we have a match that is of special importance. And because it is the first derby, but also because we are playing against the team that took the championship last year. We have to show what all of us here believe: That Olympiacos is here. That we will claim the championship and win it. Because we are Olympiacos. It’s a game where we have to make a… statement about what we want to do this year. These are the champions, but it’s a new season. We must be positive. Let’s be determined and show what we can really do“, he added.
From there, Martinez officially welcomed Stefan Jovetic to the team, to whom he emphasized that “Olympiacos is a team where there is only one result: victory. We want to win everywhere. That’s the mentality of the club and I’m sure it matches yours too. You will see through everyday life that you have joined a great team».
