Kourbelis: “We will always play for Baldock”

Dimitris Kourbelis emphasized that Greece’s victory over England at “Wembley” takes second place after the death of George Baldock, he called the former right-back of Panathinaikos a fighter and that he will never be forgotten and he believes that all the players got a boost to defeat the “three lions”.

In detail: “As great as the result is, the match from the beginning was put on the back burner, because of the incident that happened. There are not many words, all the children said it… We are shocked, we are devastated. We will remember him forever. He was really a fighter who gave his soul for the team, although he was new here and not 100% from Greece. He showed us the way many times while he was with us, we will remember him, we will always play for him, he is part of us now. These are difficult times not only for us, but for all of Greece.

Everyone worked on themselves in the run up to the match and since the postponement request was denied. It also gave us an extra boost. If we had any strength, he pushed us to work harder, to do it for him. In these cases, it always happens like this, you get help from this person.”
