Καρέρα: «Να παίξουμε με συγκέντρωση και αυτοθυσία κόντρα στη Λέστερ»

Συγκέντρωση και αυτοθυσία θα πρέπει να επιδείξουν οι παίκτες της ΑΕΚ απέναντι στη Λέστερ, όπως δήλωσε ο Μάσιμο Καρέρα κατά τη διάρκεια της καθιερωμένης συνέντευξης Τύπου πριν τον αγώνα με τις «Αλεπούδες», που θα διεξαχθεί την Πέμπτη στο ΟΑΚΑ, για τη δεύτερη αγωνιστική των ομίλων του Europa League.

Αναλυτικά οι δηλώσεις του Ιταλού τεχνικού:

Για το αν έχει αποφασίσει για σύστημα και ενδεκάδα: «Ναι, έχω αποφασίσει, αλλά υπάρχουν 2-3 πράγματα που με απασχολούν, αλλά αυτά θα τα αποφασίσω μετά την τελευταία προπόνηση».

Για το τι θα πρέπει να αλλάξει η ΑΕΚ σε σχέση με το ματς εναντίον της Μπράγκα: «Πρώτα απ' όλα να κάνουμε τις ευκαιρίες γκολ. Εναντίον τέτοιων ομάδων δεν θα σου παρουσιαστούν πολλές.

Γνωρίζουμε ότι αντιμετωπίζουμε μια μεγάλη ομάδα και πρέπει να είμαστε συγκεντρωμένοι, αν έχουμε πνεύμα αυτοθυσίας. Η Λέστερ διακρίνεται από ατομική και ομαδική ποιότητα. Έχει παίκτες με εξαιρετικά χαρακτηριστικά, ειδικά στον τομέα της ταχύτητας. Πρέπει να έχουμε κοντά τις γραμμές μας και να κάνουμε το παιχνίδι μας. Από εκεί και πέρα, είναι ένα ματς και τα πάντα μπορούν να συμβούν».

Με τι αποτέλεσμα θα είναι ευχαριστημένος: «Μπαίνουμε στο γήπεδο για να κάνουμε το παιχνίδι μας. Γνωρίζουμε πάρα πολύ καλά ποιες είναι οι δυνατότητές μας κι αυτά πρέπει να τα βγάλουμε πάνω στο γήπεδο. Επαναλαμβάνω ότι είναι ένα ματς, η μπάλα είναι στρογγυλή και ίσως εμείς να είμαστε χαρούμενοι στο τέλος».

- Για το αν η Λέστερ είναι πιο επικίνδυνη εκτός έδρας: «Όχι, πιστεύω ότι είναι σπουδαία ομάδα μέσα κι έξω από το γήπεδό της. Θα δημιουργήσει το παιχνίδι της και ειδικά απέναντι στη Μάντσεστερ Σίτι έδειξε ότι έχει όλες τις προδιαγραφές για να αντιμετωπίσει κορυφαίους αντιπάλους».

- Για τις άδειες κερκίδες και τι σκοπεύει να πει στους παίκτες του πριν από το ματς: «Στα αποδυτήρια θα πω στους παίκτες αυτό που θα σκεφτώ εκείνη την ώρα. Δεν είναι κάτι που το έχω γραμμένο, αλλά κάτι που θα βγει μέσα από την καρδιά μου. Είναι λίγο... σουρεάλ να παίζουμε χωρίς κόσμο. Θέλουμε να έχουμε κοντά τους οπαδούς μας. Θα πρέπει να το ξεπεράσουμε και οι παίκτες να βρουν την έξτρα δύναμη από μέσα τους».

Τσιντώτας: «Πρέπει να είμαστε συγκεντρωμένοι»

Τους παίκτες της ΑΕΚ εκπροσώπησε ο Παναγιώτης Τσιντώτας, ο οποίος μεταξύ άλλων τόνισε: «Είναι πρόκληση για όλους μας στο κλαμπ, απέναντι σε μία ομάδα που έχει καταφέρει να κατακτήσει το πρωτάθλημα και να βρίσκεται ανάμεσα στους κορυφαίους της Premier League. Πρέπει να είμαστε συγκεντρωμένοι, να πιστέψουμε σε εμάς και να πάρουμε από το ματς ό,τι καλύτερο μπορούμε.

Η Λέστερ είναι ομάδα που δεν συγχωρεί το λάθος, άρα χρειάζεται πολύ μεγάλη προσοχή, ειδικά όταν χάνουμε την μπάλα. Είναι και για εμένα μια πρόκληση. Απέναντι σε τέτοιες ομάδες η άμυνα είναι αυτή που καθορίζει το αποτέλεσμα. Δεν θεωρώ ότι θα μπορούσα να το κρίνω μόνος μου, αλλά σίγουρα θα δώσω το καλύτερο. Πυξίδα όλων μας θα είναι η νίκη με τη Βόλφσμπουργκ και μακάρι να πανηγυρίσουμε μια αντίστοιχη επιτυχία».

The World’s Oldest Living Olive Tree is on Crete

The most ancient olive tree in the world, in Crete. Credit: Dimitra Damian/Greek Reporter The oldest olive tree in the world is located in the village of Ano Vouves of Kissamos in Chania, Crete. The ancient tree is 3000 years old, as determined by the international scientific community. The ancient olive tree in Vouves has a trunk with a circumference of 12.5 meters (41 feet), and a diameter of 4.6 meters (15 feet). It belongs to the local tree variety of tsounati, and was grafted at a height of 3 meters onto a wild olive tree. Because of the grafting, its trunk has been so beautifully shaped by nature that it resembles a sculpture. In 1990, after a unanimous decision in the prefecture of Chania, the Vouves Olive Tree was declared a Natural Monument of great importance due to its status as the world’s oldest tree of its kind. The oldest olive tree still produces high-quality olives The fruits of the ancient olive tree make the best olive oil in the world, making the area...

Inside the Magnificent Minoan Palace of Knossos in Crete

The Minoan palace at Knossos. Credit: Gary Bembridge /Wikimedia Commons/ CC-BY-2.0 The Palace of Knossos, located about five kilometers (three miles) south of Heraklion on Kephala hill, was the largest of all the Minoan palaces in Crete. It was also at the core of the highly sophisticated civilization that flourished on the island over 3,500 years ago. The discovery of the Minoan Palace of Knossos The discovery and subsequent excavation of the palace dates back to the beginning of the twentieth century. Before then, Knossos had only served as a place mentioned in Greek mythology. The first modern scholar to take a serious interest in the area was the German Heinrich Schliemann, who in 1870 had excavated the site believed to be Troy. Schliemann was certain that a major Minoan palace lay hidden near Heraklion, but the Ottoman authorities who still ruled the island at the time denied any permission to dig there. Years afterward, the British archaeologist Arthur Evans, inspired b...

Ten Unforgettable Things to Do Around Syntagma Square in Athens

  Syntagma Square, Athens. Credit: Public Domain Syntagma Square has literally been the very heart of Athens ever since the city became the capital of the modern Greek state. With the Greek Parliament building and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier looming over it, it is rich with history and is the place where most major events of the last two centuries have taken place. Its name in Greek means “Constitution Square,” a name granted by Greece’s first modern royal, King Otto, on September 3, 1843, after an uprising of the people. This was a smart political move, since the royal palace overlooked the square. In 1934, the royal palace was turned over to the Greek Parliament, and ever since that time, Syntagma Square has been the place where all public protests and demonstrations have taken place. Syntagma Square home to historic demonstrations and protests In December of 1944, just after the departure of the occupying Nazi troops, a people’s rally at the square was marred b...

Rolls-Royce Names Panos Kakoullis New CFO

Kakoullis will start in his new role on May 3. The company hopes that the Greek-British Kakoullis, former head of audit and assurance at Deloitte, will successfully guide the company through the coronavirus pandemic. As the the second-largest maker of aircraft engines, Rolls Royce has taken major hits due to the dramatic decrease in air travel caused by the coronavirus. Airlines pay the company by the number of hours each plane is in flight. Accordingly, as the travel industry has come to a standstill, Rolls Royce faced severe financial difficulty in the past year. Rolls Royce CEO Warren East highlighted Kakoullis’ over 30 years experience at Deloitte in a statement: “Panos delivered significant transformational change at Deloitte, streamlining and simplifying the business and we look forwa...

The Greek Who Taught the Japanese to Eat Feta Cheese and Olive Oil

Credit: Facebook/ Thanasis Fragkis Pioneering businessman Thanasis Fragkis was the very first person to introduce olive oil and other traditional Greek products to Japan more than a decade ago. Olive oil, wine, feta cheese and Greek yogurt, relatively unknown food items to this Far Eastern country, are now being enjoyed as the great gourmet delicacies they are. Speaking to Greek Reporter from his home in the town of Mito, around 120 km (76 miles) north of Tokyo, Fragkis was justifiably proud of his achievement. “We have taught the Japanese to eat olive oil, cheeses, including feta, yogurt that were not part of their diet. They hardly knew of olive oil,” he says in wonderment. Originally from the town of Kymi on the island of Evia, Fragkis emigrated to England, where he met his future wife, who is Japanese. “When we got married we thought ‘you are Japanese, I am Greek, what is the point of living in England?’. Greece was a difficult place to start a business in at the ti...

It is also favored by naturists who want to feel free to be sunbathe and swim in the nude. Greece actually has too many nude beaches to count, with travelers knowing that if they desire that experience, they are never too far away from a nudist beach anywhere in the country. It is not an uncommon sight for women to sunbathe topless, even at conventional beaches in Greece, which is emblematic of the free-spirited nature of the country.

The Fascinating History of Thessaloniki’s Iconic White Tower

The White Tower. Credit: ΣΟΛΑΚΙΔΗΣ ΣΩΤΗΡΙΟΣ /Wikimedia Commons/ CC BY-SA 4.0 Residents of Thessaloniki, Greece’s second largest city, often use its White Tower as a point of reference when giving directions in the beautiful seaside city. That’s because the tower is by far Thessaloniki’s most iconic monument. The ancient city, located in northern Greece, has a rich history stretching from antiquity to the modern era, but is most noted for its importance during the Byzantine period. During that time, Thessaloniki was a competitor with the great city of Constantinople in terms of its wealth and influence. The White Tower was a witness to many of the city’s most important historical events, and its role in Thessaloniki changed as did the ownership of the city itself throughout the millennia. Studying the history of the White Tower means learning the history of Thessaloniki. The Tower’s strategic location along the Thermaic Gulf made it perfect for guarding the city from thre...

Government, Opposition Clash over Bill to Curb Demonstrations in Greece

As the vote for the bill to regulate demonstrations is about to go up for a vote in the Greek Parliament Thursday, there continue to be fierce reactions from the opposition, unions and other sectors of society. Greece’s public sector employees union ADEDY walked off their jobs on Wednesday, protesting the bill on public demonstrations by accusing the government of using a 1971 junta decree which restricted the right of assembly. The Greek Communist Party workers Union PAME, along with other leftist unions, are also organizing demonstrations in the center of Athens to take place on Thursday evening. Government argues in favor of regulation of demonstrations Speaking in Parliament on Thursday, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said that the bill “protects the citizens’ freedom of public expression; it protects it from both state authoritarianism and from the threat that this right will be usurped by those who oppose normalcy.” PM Mitsotakis emphasized that the r...

Covid-19: Greece Records 1,070 Cases, Nearly Half in Attica

Credit: Greek Reporter A total of 1,070 cases of Covid-19 were diagnosed in Greece on Thursday, 81 fewer than the 1,151 cases that were recorded in the country one day earlier, on Wednesday. Alarming health officials, a great number of Thursday’s 1,070 cases were diagnosed in Attica, where 533 Covid-19 diagnoses were recorded. Attica is home to Athens, the capital and most populous city in Greece. Cases are particularly high in Athens itself — where a total of 129 cases were recorded in the center of the city. In the city’s western and southern suburbs, 101 and 80 cases were diagnosed respectively on Thursday. In Thessaloniki, Greece’s second largest city, a total of 87 cases were identified in the last 24 hours. A total of 81 cases were recorded in the region of Achaea, located in the northwestern Peloponnese. Tragically, 25 people with the virus passed away in the country over the past 24-hour period, which is two fewer than those recorded yesterday. Currently, 2...

Έχοντας σε μεγάλη μέρα τον Κρίστιαν Γκάνεα, ο οποίος πέτυχε ένα γκολ και μοίρασε άλλο ένα, ο Άρης επικράτησε 3-0 του Ατρομήτου και βρέθηκε ξανά στην δεύτερη θέση της βαθμολογίας και πλέον ρίχνει το βάρος στο παιχνίδι Κυπέλλου που ακολουθεί με τον Ολυμπιακό στο Βικελίδης.
