Kastritis: “Unforgettable night for every Martian”

Proud of his players, he said Yannis Kastritis after winning (76-75) of Mars on Buduchnost.

The “yellow” coach referred to the many problems plaguing his team recently, while he emphasized that the qualification of the football section in the Cup changed to the more… warmer and the climate in the stands.

“It was like a playoff game. I don’t want to say too much about the game, we didn’t have a good first half, but everyone stepped up to pull it off. We refuse to lose, that’s the title. Congratulations to the children and also to our amazing world, without their support we could not turn the game around. Happy for the football qualification, because we were one, one Ares. Because when the qualification was confirmed like a… magic wand touched everyone and the energy was amazing at that point, incredible atmosphere“, initially stated Yannis Kastritis.

And he continued:The guys in the last few days, some didn’t train, others were injured, so extra congratulations to everyone. It’s not easy to play good basketball this season. Give your 100% and you will get what you deserve. We may have been wronged with Cluj in the last shot, but the main thing in basketball is to be consistent, in the end justice will come. We have many such games ahead of us, but today I am happy for the players and for our fans the combination of victories in football and basketball, the way they came they will remember this day for many years».

On the mistakes made by the playmakers: “Katsivelis and Fillios are in the position of playmaker, Toliopoulos plays many minutes in every match and a few days ago he was also sick. Stark came to Romania, he also had a problem with a virus and until today we didn’t know what to do, he told me to come in for a few minutes to help. It is normal to make so many mistakes in attack with so many problems».

On whether he is worried about the general image of the team lately:In the last game against Turk Telecom the team played excellently after the injured had returned and the team had trained normally. We keep this image when we can train normally. We cannot worry when our daily life is not normal. It’s not an excuse but when everyone comes back and we’ll see the team again».

On the subject of qualification: “Victory doesn’t… lock in any qualification. We have three more games, you can do 3/3 or 0/3. It wasn’t “final” because even if we lost, nothing ended, not even after we won. Now we look at AEK. But tonight will be unforgettable for the Martian, he will remember it for a long time. We also dedicate the victory to Antonis Ganzio who had his name day and is here every day helping us».
