Olympiacos is ready to start its attempt at Berlin Final Fourhaving in front of him the big semi-final with Real Madrid (24/05, 22:00).
One of the emissaries of sport-fm.gr, Christos Robolisspoke with the “queen” center, Vincent Poirierwho referred to the match-up with the “red and whites”, in last year’s final Euroleaguebut also in its excellent quality Olympiakou in position “5”.
In detail what he said:
Everyone is talking about the curse of the first in the regular season, which has so far never managed to win the trophy at the end of the season. Which is your opinion;
“Last year no one had come back from 0-2, but we did. Real is a team that can break the curse. I hope we can make it. We will try.”
Are there any similarities or differences between last year’s final and this year’s race?
“Every game is like a final. Olympiacos might want to take revenge for what happened last year, so we should be ready for a big battle. We’ll see…”.
-We expect big battles in the fifth position. You against your countryman and friend, Fal, Tavares, Milutinov, Wright… Is it important to win this racket battle?
“It will definitely be a big battle. Olympiacos has great players in the racket. Rebounds will be one of the keys to the match. It is up to us to present ourselves better and control the game. We’ll see”.
-One last question. What is the greatest virtue of Olympiacos as a team?
“I think they play great as a whole. They have a great mentality, they know how to control the game, they play fast, they have size… It will be a big challenge for us, but we are ready.”
