by Olympiakos, said before the game: "There is a good group of players here and we all believe that if we are at our best, we can qualify for the Euros.

I hope we can continue like this, we will have the support of our audience and get the All points".



Goalkeeper Samir Oikani added: "We started the preparations for the first two games and the desire is to start the campaign on the right foot. Our goal is to believe in the possibility of reaching the Euros, although it is very difficult because we have a complicated home.
