There is no concern at Panathinaikos, as stated by Fotis Ioannidisafter the 2-0 defeat by Aris.
The “clover” striker, speaking to Nova’s camera, said that his team lost their concentration in the match, as they conceded a goal at a critical point and this played a key role in the development of the match.
Afterwards, Fotis Ioannidis made it clear that Panathinaikos remains focused on its goal, while underlining that the “greens” should be ready for the match against Villarreal on Thursday for the Europa League.
What Fotis Ioannidis said in detail:
“We didn’t manage to score, we thought we would find the goal. We conceded a goal in a bad spot. In the 2nd half, the pace dropped and our concentration was lost.
I had a chance, I was played by Verbic, I was beaten by an opponent I think and I lost my balance a bit and didn’t score.
The rhythm dropped, we also dropped psychologically. We failed to find the spaces and utilize our players. The tempo was not what it should have been and it cost us.
There is no worry in the team. We know our quality. In most matches we had a good image and in the details we did not win. We are concerned about the fact that we have not received the results in the derby, but we believe that they will come.
I’ve said before that we are professionals, committed to our goal, we know what we have to do to be ready for Thursday’s match.”
