Olympiacos held by NEC Nijmegen

Olympiacos drew 0-0 with NEC Nijmegen at the Karaiskaki Stadium, meaning qualification for the play-off round will be decided in the return leg in the Netherlands.

Olympiacos coach Mendilibar said the scoreless draw was not a bad result for how the team had looked, and that qualification remained open.

Olympiacos player Zota Silva said the team had given everything.
