Ouzounidis: “The AEK victory is important, despite the” anomaly “in the groups’ ratings”

The importance of a Mars victory over AEK was pointed out by Marin Ouzounidis in his statements to Nova’s camera.

Read what the yellow coach said …



Initially, Marin Ouzounidis commented on the latest derby for this season for Mars, which happens to be against AEK, opening the debate on the process of shaping the second group of playoffs, as their points will be divided by two:



“Indeed, it’s a derby, which means a difficult game. We play with an opponent, who didn’t have the best results lately. AEK may have absences, but we know well that it has a large roster, many players who can fill in the gaps. We should not be complacent. We have to be concentrated and we have to play as best as possible so that we can get the win. It is important to win, because we have the continuation of the championship. We don’t finish here. We want the victory, although there is this “anomaly” with the groups score, as others apply to the first, others to the second and others for the third. It’s a situation that we unfortunately have to accept. ”

Asked if the victory is a one -way street for Mars, because he is chasing the fifth European ticket, the “yellow” coach replied, while criticizing his team:



“You always want the victory. When you get the positive result, then you see how the situation can evolve later. We have to play as best we can. It is the last game of normal duration and we have to present our good self. Until now, in the time I am in the team, I can say that we have a great imbalance in our performance. We have some very good games and some other very moderate to bad. The biggest disadvantage of our team is the imbalance in its performance. Playing with a very good opponent, however, we have to present our best. ”

Marino Ouzounidis asked the question if it was easy for him to pass the message to his players that there is a continuation of the season and they must be concentrated, as a European ticket is (possibly) played, as there is likely to be frustration, because the team showed that it could claim 1-4. He said about it, continuing the criticism of the bad texts of the “yellow”:



“Regardless of what I said after the game of the previous race and some things that happened during the season, I think we have given many rights to lose points. If we want to improve, we have to look at our own mistakes first, the racing. Players are professionals and they need to understand that there is another goal now. We have to get ready for him. The hard ones for us are starting now. We are the team from the second group, which only has to lose and less to win! ”

Returning to the derby with AEK, Mars coach focused on the following, passing the message to his players:



“I’m waiting for a very difficult game. I expect a very concentrated opponent, an opponent who will give the best he can to maintain his chances for either the championship or the second place. I never expect a loose opponent. We need to be 100%ready in this derby. ”

And as for the fact that Mars this season in the derby has been better than the smaller team games:



“This is the reality! This game, however, is the last for this season and we must try to maintain this good treaty for us. “
