After the match, the president of EPO, Makis Gagatsischaracterized the appearance of the National team “one of the best in its history”while he spoke about the sacrifice of his soul made by the Greek internationals, but also his untimely death George Baldock.
In detail what he said:
“Words are poor in front of what happened yesterday with George, the victory is dedicated to him alone. The absolute protagonists are the players and the coach who sacrificed their lives today and a golden page was written in the history of the National team.
I hope the stadium will be full on Sunday, people deserve to love this team, they proved it today by making us all proud, but making George even more proud from above. Also on Sunday, the team will compete with black armbands and there will be a minute’s silence for the Greek fans to honor George’s memory.
The protagonists are only the footballers and the coach and I really wish with all my heart that we win on Sunday as well, take first place and qualify for the 2026 Mundial, which is our big goal.”

A victory, an appearance is the “key” that turns to bring the world closer.”
