Focusing on the next challenge
The oopening rounds of the Greek Cup traditionally have hidden dangers and challenges. This is, after all, the main characteristic of a competition in which PAOK has dominated in recent years.
The match in Larissa is not something to dwell on. With Kurtic’s goal in the final moments secure a draw for the Double-headed Eagle and that is the only important point that the team take away from that game before turning the page and focusing on the upcoming league match against Ionikos.
On Thursday (02.12) afternoon, PAOK trained at the club’s Nea Mesimvria training center. The players who started the match against Larissa followed a winding down and recovery program while the rest of the group worked on tactics, defensive drills and build-up play.
Jose Angel Crespo followed a special program of increased intensity and on Friday (03.12) he is expected to return to full training. Andre Vieirinha continued to train individually, as did Nelson Oliveira, while Alexandru Mitrita stayed in the gym for his workout.
