Desserts: “Panathinaikos is a great team, with a huge history and passionate fans”

One of the central figures of yesterday’s (23/10) match Panathinaikou with the Feyenoord was, in his… absence, in fact, and Cyril Desserts.

After all, the Nigerian centre-forward of the “greens” has previously played successfully in the Rotterdam team, so his return to the Netherlands did not go unnoticed.

Instead, Dessers granted statements in Dutch ESPNcharacterizing Panathinaikos and Feyenoord as two great and great teams.



In detail what he said:

On his return to Rotterdam: “It’s the first time I’ve been back since my last game here, the Conference League final. It’s very special for me to be back. I have many fond memories of this stadium. I had to tell the guys at the table some stories about the Conference League final, Marseille and Slavia Prague.”

For his injury: “When I got injured, that was the first thing that came to my mind. It hurt a lot at the time, but unfortunately that’s also part of football.”

About his trip to Holland: “I had to ask the physiotherapist. At first he was not very positive about leaving me, but I told him that I really wanted to go back to “De Cape”. We worked really hard and I finally got to experience this game up close.”

For Panathinaikos and Feyenoord: “Panathinaikos is a wonderful team, as is Feyenoord. With a huge history and passionate fans. I see a lot of similarities between the two teams.”
