Continuation in the playoffs Volleyball League with… clearing and agony!
At 17:00 (ERT-3) in Renti, Olympiacos hosts him I was talking in the third semi-final between them with the series being at 1-1 after the emphatic equalizer of the team of Nea Smyrni in “Krisos Persis”.
The Slovenian center of Olympiakos Alen Payenk said about the match: “The semi-final stage is tied 1-1 and now, we are playing at home again, with our people, so we will do everything to win and get the advantage in the series with Milos. This means that we want to have a good serve, so that the opponent cannot attack with fast balls, while our block, together with the defense, can do a good job.”
The coach of Milos Sakis Psarras said: “With the recipe of victory in the second semi-final, we will go to the home of Olympiakos to play our game. We are in good shape. We have a good mentality and we will try to play proper volleyball. It is reasonable to expect a reaction from Olympiakos but we will try to do what we know well, that is, pressure on the serve and good block – defense so that we can make the difference. What is certain is that we have two more matches ahead of us. We have a long way to go. We have no pressure but we are not indifferent either. We have egos and ambitions that go all the way to the finals.”
In 17 matches in the past, Olympiacos leads 15-2 over A.O.N.S. Milos.

Remember how the previous two matches went:
About two hours later in Mets’ closed gym, Panathinaikos will look for the victory against PAOK which will send them to the Volley League finals after the 2022/23 season. The “greens” want revenge from the “double-headed of the north” as last year they experienced a 3-0 defeat in the semi-final series and they will compete with this goal, at the moment the Thessaloniki team goes for the “double” that will give them give the right to hope.
Panathinaikos coach Dimitris Andreopoulos said: “It is another difficult game against a very strong opponent. These games are judged in the details and the line is very fine. We on Clean Monday want to play a good game. We will give our best.”
PAOK coach Josko Milenkowski said: “We face a difficult task that we must win if we want to progress further. Even though we are playing against the best team at the moment, we had good chances in the previous games that we didn’t take and we have ourselves to blame for that. In sport, only effort, desire and motivation are not enough, but quality and a high level of play must also be demonstrated. I hope we all understand that and show it in the crucial third game.”
