«Self-confident at Peristeri»
With the win over AEK Athens behind him and the encounter against Atromitos just around the corner, Igor Tudor spoke about the Peristeri match to Novasports TV. Here is what the Croatian tactician said:
On the victory over AEK:
«Defeating AEK was very important for our self-confidence. It’s not enough to play well, victories are also needed. Our mentality in the game and this win will help us against Atromitos who are a very good side. It won’t be an easy game«.
On the comeback against AEK and whether he expects his team to add new elements to their game:
«We will be seeing some new elements. We are also expecting back our injured players, who need to prepare right and add new traits to the team. We travel to Athens to face Atromitos, who usually give PAOK a hard time. We go there to play well and, if given the chance, win the game«.
On where does his self-confidence stem from:
«It’s great to feel constant support. But one never knows in football. There is always pressure and sometimes it originates from me, because I want to improve constantly. Then it’s my duty to put pressure on the players, who will decide everything at the end«.
