OR AEK ended with a 2-1 win over Corfu Her friendly games in the Netherlands and after the end of the match, Marco Nikolic stressed that she is now called upon to make important decisions for the team.
Marco Nikolic said some players would not continue to be in AEK, heralding the “cut” of trainers who will not count for the new season in Greece and Europe.
Nikolic’s statements
“We are 17 days here, players are tired psychologically and physically. We started well in the first 15 minutes, but we didn’t score and then we had irritation. What happened at last season’s finale should not affect us spiritually. In the second half we were a bit better, but we accepted some counterattacks and we have to fix some things.
There are some places we need improvement, we still have some days of preparation. We work on a particular plan, 33 players came here. Now it’s time to make some decisions, some good and some not so much. Some players will not be with us, they are not personal. It’s just time to bring fresh blood, have motivated players. I’m sure we’ll have them, I don’t know if it will be in a week or in a month. The sooner we do, the better.
Pineda is one of the most important players in our team. We had to give him some days of leave after the Gold Cup. It has great quality, energy and rhythm. I hope we still have 1-2 players at our disposal until Sunday, when we return to workouts. “
