Aris lost to Olympiakos 2-1for the 18th matchday of the Stoiximan Super League.
The coach of the “yellows” Marinos Ouzounidis he spoke after the match and referred among other things to his team’s defensive behavior in the final minutes.
“We entered the second half and immediately conceded a goal. Ok, there were problems before the game and those with Mayo, Diadi and Saverio came up in his development and as a result we had to change a lot. What happened is unacceptable.
We knew that Olympiacos would fill the area and when they would come with crosses and while we should have been better in individual defense, we failed. It is unacceptable to concede goals like this.
That of El Kaabi is canceled and the same thing happens again. The guys made an effort but it wasn’t enough and the equally bad thing is that we lost several players for the next games and a situation was created that we have to manage.”
On the defensive behavior of the last few minutes: “We knew that Olympiacos would bring the ball into the area and we should have been better at marking. It is not allowed that the Olympiakos player was completely unmarked.”
