Papanikolaou: “Our first concern is Real, so we can claim the trophy on Sunday”

Stating that luck owes nothing to Olympiakos is Kostas Papanikolaouspeaking at the airport before the team departed for the Berlinfor Final Four of the Euroleague.

See in detail what the captain of Olympiakos said:

EIt’s the 3rd Final Four, time to conquer? “Every time we feel it’s time. It’s important to go and do the job, you never go saying ok this time someone else will take it. May it be our turn, may we present ourselves ready and strong, certainly starting with the game against Real because that is our first concern and the only thing on our minds, to give ourselves a chance to meet to another final and to claim the trophy”.



On whether history owes something to Olympiakos after last year’s final: “I said it and I’ve said it again that every Final Four is different, now whether luck owes us something doesn’t matter, what matters from the teams that will step on the floor is who will get the small victories to take the lead and there they will the match is decided. All the rest from when the jambol is done are erased and neither the prehistory nor the normal duration count.”
