Disappointed by his heavy home defeat PAOK by Olympiakos (1-4), but also determined for hard work in view of the rematch of the Cup with Panathinaikos and the battle for qualification to the final of the institution, appeared with his statements Kirill Despodov.
The Bulgarian midfielder of the “two-headed team of the north” characteristically stated that everyone should to… shut their mouths and get to work for the upcoming game with the “greens”.
Kirill Despodov’s statements in detail:
“It’s a bad situation for us, especially the result. We created some chances to equalize at 2-2, we pressed high, perhaps hurriedly, but we left empty spaces, Olympiacos took advantage of them and scored on the counter attacks.
We are not playing our game. At half time the coach asked us to control the ball more, to change sides. In the first and second half we started exactly the same, giving space to Olympiakos.
We should not react like this in such a stadium with our world inside. We conceded two goals in almost the same way. We have to change the situation. We will go to the Avenue on Wednesday with a different spirit to make the change. We lost 1-4, but we’re not the worst team in the world.
We shut our mouths and get to work from tomorrow. We bow our heads and go on Wednesday to reverse the situation and get the qualification. We have a good team.”
