Diego Martinez talked about the management he has to do, in order for Olympiacos to complete its difficult schedule with consecutive games at home and abroad.
The coach of the “red and white” spoke about the defeat by Freiburg, emphasizing the big goal of proper management, in view of the continuation.
In detail, what he said to the Cosmote TV camera:
For the game against Freiburg: “We made some mistakes and as it happens at this level mistakes are paid dearly. However, in general we played a good game and were at a good level. As we know very well the lack of accuracy is very important at this level and can cost you the game. We learn from all of this and move on».
For the continuous demanding games and whether there is enough energy for Sunday’s match: “It is precisely for this reason that we must assess the situation of each footballer and based on the data we have to make the changes. When we make changes we have in mind not only the specific moment but also what follows and the rest of the team’s needs. So we have to think very well and analyze the data we have and divide the time appropriately among the footballers so that everyone is available when the team needs them because the demands are high. With three games a week we need very good roster management to be able to cope.
This is our goal. This is the challenge we face. To be able to cope with such a program. We must be very well prepared. In the many games we have against many different opponents, in different competitions and in different types of play we always want to be ready to handle any situation and it’s good that the next game is coming in a few days».
