We deserved to win because we were constantly in front of the score. I am happy because it is very important for my team and for Greek handball. Every point is valuable for representing the country. It’s a tough and balanced group. We gave it our all in very difficult conditions and it is a proud victory. We don’t have any updates on the injured right now, so we’ll wait until tomorrow morning.”

This team deserves to have their own stadium. You’ve seen kids come out with cramps and bruises. We have changed seven pitches in ten days. The time has come for the state to do something and find a solution.”
