"My players gave their best, maybe we respected Olympiakos too much, because our starting plan was to stick to our game and we conceived an early goal. I am happy with the performance, but disappointed with the result, Berbatov made some interesting moves against the best Super League team, it was my decision to play along Athanasiadis tonight.
I am speaking with Tzavellas all the time and he has improved in discipline, maybe I will have to speak with him again, Chatziisaias made a solid debut. I have understood some things about Olympiakos' treatment, but the most important thing for me is the players to follow my instructions during the game", said the Croatian manager after the match.
