Olympiacos managed to complete the regular Euroleague season in the first place with the victory over Maccabi. In this match, as in the previous three of the competition, it was absent due to injury Luca Vildosabut who was in CHEF And he lived the festive atmosphere.
The Argentine guard talked to Meridian Sport about this year’s “Reds” and stressed that the First Season is not enough for their ambitions, while referring to the emotions of his previous groups, his Red star and Panathinaic.
At the same time, he made a prediction for tonight’s (11/04) clash of the “Greens” with the Belgrade team at OAKA, while comparing the atmosphere in his seats. Red star and his Olympic.
In detail what he said:
To conquer first: “The feeling is wonderful. Being first in the Euroleague is the result of hard work. But the first place in the championship is not what we want, we want more and we have to be ready for what is going on now. “
For Panathinaikos’ clash with the Red Star: “It will be a difficult game. Playing away to OAKA is always difficult. But I think Asteras can do a great job there. I don’t know if they will have a center at their disposal. However, I think the Red has a great season. They deserve a victory, but most importantly, they have secured a position further, so it doesn’t matter in the end. I wish them the best. “
For the “dilemma” between Panathinaikos and Red Star: “I have love for both teams. With Panathinaikos I won the Euroleague. They respect me a lot, as I respect them. But the Red Star is more mine … it was more my home. I played there and enjoyed it a lot. This time I will say the Red Star. “
For a possible intersection of Olympiacos with the Red Star: “Honestly, I wouldn’t want to play against him. We don’t have to find ourselves in the playoffs. I would prefer another team … we have to wait for what will happen. “
For the atmosphere at Olympiacos headquarters in relation to that of the Red Star: “I know that fans of the Red Star and Olympiacos have a brotherly relationship. If I had to choose, I would say that the atmosphere in Halas Pyonir is warmer. I don’t think it’s bad in Piraeus or something, but Hala Pyonir is special.
Maybe if I was playing with Astera at Stark Arena, they were different. But here in Hala Pionir, with a smaller arena where people are much closer, you feel the real pressure when you are a guest. But, it’s also amazing to play here. I love Greeks and Serbian fans. It’s crazy! Being on the pitch with their support is incredible. “
