Mediliber: “Surely people will see something they like”

THE Jose Luis Mendilibar spoke at the press conference after Olympiakos’ victory over Lamia (0-3).

The Basque coach first referred to the game, describing it as difficult, and then he also spoke about the apotheosis he experienced from the world, as well as the Gelson Martins.

His statements in detail:

“It was a difficult and tough game against a good opponent, Lamia made it quite difficult for us. He also had a good chance to score in the match, but I think that the goal that came for us towards the end of the first half made it quite easy for us and opened the way for us. In the second half we were in total control, we were better, we scored the rest of the goals and finished the game.”

After the end of the match the crowd shouted your name and that of Gelson Martins, does that show a belief in the team’s plan? “First we want to thank our fans who support us in all the games. We also saw in Volos a lot of people coming to the stadium, just like now in Lamia and a lot of people traveled with us to see us. They are by our side whether we play well or badly and they are always good to us and they are always on our side and we thank them for that. Surely the people will see something they like, now they see the effort of Gelson Martins who did a good preparation and was effective and continues to be, that’s why people like it. After last season which was difficult for him with injuries, but now they are happy for this player because what they see is beautiful.”
