Joan Platha sent a winning slogan in the home derby against Olympiakos for the 13th matchday of the Stoiximan Basket League, at noon on Sunday (07/01, 14:45).
The coach of AEK emphasized that his team has a long time to beat Piraeus and wants to achieve this, giving a gift to its fans.
“We are playing against a good team, which won midweek twice in the Euroleague. We go into the match with three losses on the roster, but I can say with confidence that my players trained very well this week. Anyway, we are AEK. We don’t give up and we will fight. We have time to beat him (Olympiakos) and we want to achieve it. For us above all, for our world, for our families.
I congratulate my players for the training sessions they did during the week. We are not a group that will complain about the losses that can occur, such as injuries, viruses (eg Alpha’s) and the unexpected. We hope that our people will support us, and will be by our side throughout the race. Even in difficult times – because there will certainly be such – he must think positively. What I am thinking is that I want the AEK fan to be proud of what he will see. We will give 100%. If we win, it will be perfect. If we lose, let him know that we will have tried to the best of our ability.”he said to aekbc.gr.
