Vitoria: “We reacted well and showed character, we were in control throughout the match”

Rui Vitoria was pleased with his match for several reasons Panathinaikou against the Fearless. The Portuguese coach left the game satisfied, certainly because of the result brought by his team, but also because of the reaction that the “clover” got after the draw with Peristeriotes in the championship. In addition, he pointed out that he has the ability to use more players because of the response shown by players with little playing time.

“It was really a very important game for us. Because the opponent was lucky to score at the first suspected opportunity in the first half. So it was important for us to see the reaction of the players after the initial shock and I think we did that very well. We kept the ball at our feet and tried in various ways to get close to the opponent’s goal. We succeeded and reversed the result, which is the first time Panathinaikos has reversed this year. It was very important to see the reaction of the players after a match that did not go well. I wanted to test the character and the players put a very good face on it. From the first minute to the last we were in control. We put other footballers into the equation, players who had less playing time. We saw that the automations that the team has created have not changed. The box of footballers that can be used opens above. We were better and we won fairlyRui Vitoria pointed out.
