What the award winners said
Shakhov, Pelkas and Biseswar collected their awards on Saturday noon in the mixed zone of Toumba Stadium and then spoke to media representatives present in the event.
11888 MVP of March, Yevhen Shakhov, commented on the importance of scoring, both for him and his team, and send out a message to the fans:
«It’s a very important award for me and for the team. It demonstrates that we work all year long in order to do our best on the pitch.
It is very important for me to score in important games. But it’s even more important for the team to score in big matches and get three points.
Every match is crucial, regardless of the outcome. We focus on one game at a time, aiming to win, no matter what.
I would like to invite our fans here to support us in the second leg against Panathinaikos. We have no other option –we need to win with a healthy margin and advance to the final”.
Dimitris Pelkas received his Regency Casino Best Goal of March and then spoke about PAOK’s upcoming games:
«We are focusing on Sunday’s game. Apart from what is going on off the pitch, we are still within our objectives. Come Monday, we will see what future holds for us.
We take it one game at a time, starting with the one against Platanias. On Monday, we will shift our focus to the second leg of the Greek Cup semi-finals, because it’s the most important match of the season for us. We will aim to turn the tie around and I believe we can make it happen.
It’s obvious that right now we need their support and I believe that we will get it”.
Diego Biseswar was presented with the Best Goal award for Super League matchday 27 and then said:
«I don’t believe that it’s my best goal. I haven’t scored much in my career, but I am sure I have netted more beautiful ones.
We are calm. A possible ban for Olympiacos doesn’t affect us. We focus on our job, to win the two remaining games of the regular season. We are in good health, ready to win and overturn the Greek Cup tie.
My aim is to help always and give it everything I have. We are a family. We can achieve something good, as I have often repeated”.
