Ready to make history is his Youth team Olympiakou! The “red and white” K19 welcomes Lance to “G. Karaiskakis” with the goal of qualifying for the quarterfinals UEFA Youth League.
Piraeus, after their victory against Asteras Tripoli with a score of 3-0 for the championship, want to continue their European trip, facing the French team in the “16” stage of the competition.
After the end of the last training session at Rentis, yesterday, the Olympiakos coach, Sotiris Sylaidopoulos, announced the footballers that make up the team for Wednesday’s match (28/02, 15:00 in Karaiskakis). In the mission are: Sina, Exarchos, Kouraklis, K. Kostoulas, Toufakis, Tanoulis, Koutsogoulas, Prekates, Pneumonidis, Darviras, Koutsidis, Mouzakitis, Panagakos, Ch. Kostoulas, Dama, Alafakis, Gatopoulos, Liatsikouras, Bakulas and Lolis.
The coach of the Olympiakos Youth team, Sotiris Sylaidopoulos, spoke to Olympiacos.org for the great game.
“I believe that our course so far as an Academy and in general as a club should fill us with joy and pride, both for the results, but much more for the development of the children we have.
We still have a very competitive game ahead of us against a good and solid team like Lance, a team that won first place in a difficult group of the competition and as I have said in previous statements these kinds of games are what “grow” ” and develop our players individually and as a team to a great extent.
These are games that require the maximum degree of concentration and determination, elements that we have proven as a team to have and we must bring them out in this match as well.
The fact that we will compete again in Karaiskakis in front of our crowd gives us an extra motivation to succeed in qualifying for the eight best teams of the competition and continue our journey to the institution».
