Martinez: “Let’s make our “bridge” strong and strong because others want to tear it down”

After the home victory over Kifissia last Sunday, Olympic, faces tomorrow, again in “G. Karaiskakis”, the Mars for the 6th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League.

Speaking to the Cosmote TV camera, Mr Diego Martinezmentioned about the game with the “yellows”, highlighting them difficulties and the specifics, while at the same time, both referred to his injury Hehas well as for the winning streak of the “red and white” in the Faleri stadium.

Diego Martinez’s statements in detail:



For Olympiakos’ streak in “Georgios Karaiskakis”: “First of all, the fact that we have succeeded so far is due to the fact that we have faced all the games with maximum concentration. Obviously we want to win the games and we prepare them in the best possible way, but it always depends on the opponent, in the sense that all teams come to our stadium very well prepared to play against us in order to present the best version of themselves their. We do the same. We give our best in every game to be prepared to face every opponent. Regardless of who is competing we want to give the best possible performance. With our biggest weapon is the support of the world. It’s really amazing how much they support us and we saw it characteristically in the last game against Kifisia where they helped us so much that we managed to put on a good performance and get a very nice victory”.

For the match with Aris: “All the games and especially this one against Aris is a very difficult game. We are playing a team that, you know better than I do, gave us a lot of difficulties last year and it is a team that is very difficult to beat. Therefore, against them we will have to play a better game than we have done so far in order to get the victory we want. They come with a lot of confidence, but we also have a lot of confidence and believe in ourselves a lot. As we have said many times we are building a bridge and as time goes by this bridge becomes stronger and more stable. If we played alone, if there was only the Olympic factor then things would be very easy. But there are also opponents who, while we are building our bridge, they are trying to tear it down, to use the same analogy. As the games go by we are getting stronger, more stable and it becomes harder for the opponents to hurt us. Against Aris we need maximum concentration to play a very good game and beat a difficult opponent.”

About Esse and the problems he faces: “As far as Ese is concerned, I am not a doctor to be able to make a prognosis, but I think it is no longer a medical issue but the feeling that the footballer himself has and when he will be in a condition to be the best version of himself . He has a broken nose and it’s a question of how confident he feels about the contact, the duels and overall his presence on the court. So it depends on the player himself.

We have an amazing attitude from all our players. Everyone wants to be on the pitch. Everyone says they are ready to play, but it’s one thing who wants to play and another who can do it 100% and be at the excellent level we want. Therefore there are players who will not be able to start the match. We don’t even know if they will be in the squad because they have accumulated fatigue, they have some discomforts, some pains and I have a very difficult task to choose who will play because we want everyone who starts to be at the best possible level.”
