Stefan Schwab emphasized that PAOK should have scored a second goal against OFI and defended better, he does not think at all that they did not take the match against OFI seriously, since they had opportunities to “clean up” the match, he believes that they have lost their effectiveness and are not focused on defense and asked them to look at their own and not what other teams are doing.
In detail: “We controlled the game for 75 minutes. It is a defeat that is difficult to explain. We could have scored another goal. Even so, we should defend ourselves better. It is a result that leaves us speechless. We will have to work harder and come back.
It has nothing to do with the fact that we didn’t take the game seriously. Everything else. We entered seriously, we had chances, but we didn’t ‘clean up’ the game. It wasn’t lack of motivation. It was a matter of concentration. It certainly wasn’t a lack of motivation by any means.”
On the fact that PAOK concedes goals easily and has difficulty attacking: “We are not as efficient as we were last year. With Aris and Steaua, for example, we missed many opportunities to score. Defense is also a problem, we need to be more efficient and more focused. We have to work harder.”
He added, closing: “Let’s just look at our own performance. We don’t care what our opponents are doing. Of course, we know what happens in the other games, but we have to look at our own performance because we know that the results lately are not good for us.”
