Nikologiannis: “It would have been difficult for Panathinaikos to pull it off without another loss with a small-medium team – His players seemed naive”

The accoutrements of his defeat Panathinaikou from Lamia and how it came about, Tasos Nikologiannis commented on News Bulletin 247.

“Panathinaikos had a bad weekend, which started with the game against Lamia. The truth is that they were the team that had the least losses of the small and medium ones and it would be difficult to finish the year like that. If he had won, with the results that followed he would have been first and he would have had a better psychology. Last year we counted the points with OFI, Ionikos and Volos, let’s hope the same doesn’t happen this year. Perhaps Lamia was a little underestimated by the whole organization of Panathinaikos and that was a mistake, because it is in good condition. When you do championships you have to be alert in these matches, and especially as it developed with the numerical advantage, to win them. The players are naive, you can’t concede two goals from a team with 10, they were in a panic“, he emphasized in this regard.

The reporter of the station pointed out that the “clover” players believed at 2-1 that the match was over, but this did not happen and they conceded an identical goal to last year’s against OFI, while he also mentioned the first goal they “ate”, showing that they have defensive issues.

While Nikologiannis noted that Ioannidis will be available for Panathinaikos’ rematch with PAOK, leaving open whether he will play and how much.
