OR National football of Greece was ruled prematurely in the World Cup qualifiers and the EPO President, Makis Gagatsisonce again referring to the “failure” of Ivan Jovanovic’s team.
Speaking on Foxbet’s Center Fox show, Makis Gagatsi talked about the course of Greece’s national football in the World Cup qualifiers and appeared confident about the future of the team with Ivan Jovanovic on the bench.
Jovanovic’s statements
For the defeat-exclusion of National by Denmark: I also said it to my statements right after the match that this is a failure. Either the last race we were excluded, or the latter, failure is the same. It doesn’t mean anything if we go 3rd from the fourth racing or sixth. All the more so when the goal from the beginning was to win the 1st place in the group. We should not hide behind our finger and beautify situations, which we must manage as a Greek football federation. And the coach and the players.
For what was wrong in the National: It’s easy to say what went wrong. Criticism is legitimate. The analysis, as I said with the coach, will be done during, to see what went wrong and the team has conceded three goals in the last three games.
Rightly-judged, it doesn’t matter. It is important that we conceded nine goals. All the more so when we had five wins in six games in the Nations League, conceding goals from England. I find that the right analysis will be made.
In spiritual preparation, in the race. I consider the coach the top in Greece, the leading team for the National Team, and I think he will do the analysis we need to appear stronger in the future and claim our qualification to the next big event. But there are two games that are not only indifferent, since the lottery for Euro 2028 will be judged by these matches, the two March friendly, the two of June. We must definitely be held in the second capacity group.
