Giorgos Giakoumakis expressed his enthusiasm for Greece’s great victory over Ireland, who paved the way for the “double” (0-2) of the blue and white team in Dublin with the goal in the 20th minute.
“It was a very big win that we needed. I’m happy that I scored. The important thing is to be in goal. We are quite happy. We had a good first half where we could have finished the match. In the second Ireland pressed, tried with crosses to take advantage of the bodies in the area, but we got an important win. We knew their game, we saw their previous games. We were well read, we had a good mentality and as time goes on we are better on the pitcho,’ he said to the Alpha’s camera.
As for Monday’s very important match against the Netherlands at the OPAP Arena: “We want it very much. From tomorrow we start gathering for the Netherlands. We don’t skyrocket because if we don’t win, then that win won’t have any points benefit. We are growing slowly, we are getting back to where we want to be and we will claim our hopes against the giants in the last matches. We will also have the people next to us that we need».
