Atlético’s player admitted that the start of today’s opponent was overwhelming and that made things quite difficult for them. They tried to turn the game but were unsuccessful. “Olympiacos came out very strong, with their people here they were going to put the pressure on. We tried to do the same, but they scored off a set piece and after five or ten minutes they scored another one, so it was hard to come back from 2-0. Although we tried to fight for the match and get back in the game, but we weren’t lucky enough”, he said.
