Fotis Takianos stressed that Amarousiou’s victory over Porto in the way it came will give more confidence after the bad results that have brought the team to the bottom of the Stoiximan GBL, he stood on the pressure they put on the Portuguese in the second half, he said the performance of Stasinos, while he focused on the defense that gave the necessary pace in the second half and the difference between Greece and Europe.
In detail: “We are trying to find our way. It is normal to have “ups and downs” in this process. We believe that this victory and the way it was done, because it was an overturning victory, will give us confidence. It is something that is missing from the team, our ranking position does not give us that and we are looking to find it through our performance. I think we took a step forward and we have to “build” on this upset and victory.
We get a lot more pressing in the open field in the second half. I don’t want to single myself out, but I want to give credit to Stasinos, he was the x-factor of the turnaround with the pressure we put all over the pitch. The opposition controlled the pace in the first half, but then we controlled it through our defence. It was asked for 40′, we couldn’t do it in the first 20′. It was the ‘key’ to success.
Greece and Europe are two different leagues, they are played in a different way and the games are also different. Of course, the primary goal is to stay in the division, but we want to use the games in Europe to find a rhythm and boost our psychology.”
