by

THE Marco Nikolic He appeared satisfied and smiling at the press conference after AEK’s victory in Livadia, highlighting both the importance of the outcome and support of the world.

The Serbian technician referred to the difficulties of the game after the break, stood at the excellent presence of the goalkeepers and praised the efforts of his players.

At the same time, he talked about the stability in the defense and the effectiveness to improve, the work and the plan of Ribalta, and said when he was waiting for Gatsinovic and Pereira to return.

In detail what Marco Nikolic said at the press conference:

In his original position he mentioned: “Congratulations to my players. Many thanks to our fans who filled the platforms. Was very important. It was a difficult match after stopping and against an excellent opponent. I’m happy. Clearly there are many elements that we can improve. Strakosa made a great intervention in the end, but the goalkeeper had five major interventions. We had a lot of players who had traveled to many places. I love the three points we got today. It was the first of the seven matches we have to give in the next three weeks. We are all healthy, except for Gatsinovic who will be with us in a couple of days and Pereira soon, like Joao Mario. A very big thank you to our people for supporting us before the match at the hotel and today in the game. ”

For the new Clean Sheet and whether the missed opportunities are concerned: “I’m not worried. The goals will come. The important thing is to create opportunities. The important thing is that we are stable, that we keep zero in defense. And this is what we discussed at halftime, not to have nervousness and not to open the lines so as not to accept. Goals can come in a variety of ways. Maybe there was an anxiety in the end, but that was 0-1. If you have a bigger score it is easier to get into a safe mode. We will work on this piece for sure. We need to emphasize the excellent appearance of the goalkeeper. Then we made some good shots. It was a very important victory. ”

As to whether he is satisfied with the solutions he has in the roster in each position: “From the first to the last day of the transcripts we were a team. We all worked together to bring this result. I’m happy with that. They managed to reorganize a lot. We lowered the average age. It wasn’t easy to change everything in one day. We made some savings for the future as well. There is a specific plan by Javier. It is very pleased with the overall operation. AEK for me is the best team in the world. ”

On whether he will make a big rotation in the Cup match with Aigaleo: “I love the cup as an institution. You will see it in my career. I’m a little … old -fashioned. It is a separate institution for me. We need all players, we believe them and you will see this philosophy in the future. “
