Time for Europe for Olympiakos!
The doubles of Greece welcome tonight at 19:00 at “Papastrateio” the Jug Dubrovnik at their premiere in… new Champions League and they have as their main goal the victory which will give them the right to hope for qualification to the next phase.
This year’s event is different as the Final 8, as we were used to in previous years, ceases to exist and turns into a simple Final 4 while in the phase of 16, four groups of four teams will be created.
Hrvoye Kolianin will make his official debut on the Olympiakos bench, while the appearances of Dimitris Nikolaidis, Louka Lonsar, as well as the 26-year-old international regional player, Zanni Alafragki, will also be important.
THE Dinos Genidounias spoke about the big match saying: “It’s a very long journey this year, with a long break in between. The team, in general, in recent years abroad has not achieved its goals, so I am sure that everyone in the team and speaking for myself, we want after several years to make a remarkable progress and why not, to find ourselves at the top of Europe.
The match against Youg can prove to be decisive for the continuation, based on the new system of conducting the event, that is why the presence of our people in “Papastrateio” is very important.
On the other hand, the Piraeus coach said: “Yug are a very good team and a big club, the most difficult of the qualifiers. Every premiership is difficult, but I believe in the team and a win would give us a lot of confidence for the rest of the season. For sure, the most difficult group and every point is important for the team”
