Sakis Psarras emphasized that Milonas did not manage to face the amazing Lüneburg libero, he stood on the bad attacking harvest in all three sets, he believes that in the rematch they will play and have prepared better, now knowing what they have to face in order to qualify.
Analytically: “It was a difficult game, as we expected. The opponent put a lot of pressure on us, mainly from the serve and the attack. They also had a libero who didn’t let a ball drop and as a result kept our offense down. Our mission thus became difficult to do any good. Our attack determined the game to a very large extent.
Of course, we have the replay at home and I say with confidence that it will be a completely different game. We will prepare and do our best. Now, we know the opponent, his strengths and weaknesses. We have to be the ones we have to be to get close to qualifying. It won’t be easy, but we will push to succeed.”
Alexandros Nanopoulos emphasized that: “Personally, I had a great experience today at the Lüneburg stadium. A team that comes from the Champions League and we knew how difficult an opponent they are. We made some mistakes on the serve and our block-defense didn’t go well. We have the second game at home and the replay will be different and anything can happen. We are determined to claim the qualification to the ‘golden’ set”.
