His K-19 Olympiakou she has one more date with history ahead of her. After facing Nantes on Friday for the semi-finals of the Final-4 of the Youth League. Her coach, Sotiris Sylaidopoulos sent his message ahead of the great showdown.
“When you are in the four best teams in Europe it is in itself a unique achievement and we are happy and proud to become the first Greek Academy to achieve this.
We have before us a very demanding game and a huge challenge. But our progress so far as a team has proven that we are demanding of ourselves first and that our players have “grown” through this type of European games. Gaining a strong character as a team and as individuals, character and mentality that will be needed and will accompany as many of these guys as possible to reach and compete in European games with the first team of Olympiakos and that is perhaps our biggest gain.
But when you are given the opportunity to make history, you have to exhaust all the opportunities available to you and that is what we intend to do, wanting to combine a great success with the beginning of the celebration of 100 years of our club’s history“, said the Greek technician.
