Final Four – Dimitris Priftis: “Reach the highest level to win the trophy”
Dimitris Priftis explained what is the most important thing for Panathinaikos OPAP in view of the Greek Cup Final Four in the next three days in “Dyo Aorakia”.
Panathinaikos OPAP wants to win the second title of the season after the Supercup. On the eve of the semifinals of the Greek Cup Final Four against Prometheus, the trefoil coach emphasized what he considers important for his team, but also the need to establish major competitions in the years to come.
Details on what Trifyllio’s trainer said:
“I want to congratulate the teams competing in the Final Four. I hope people enjoy it. Of course we want the stadium to be full, but for obvious reasons this cannot happen. To point out that the fact that the Final Four is happening is very hopeful and optimistic, I hope this expands in the future and we will see a Final Eight.
This fact is very optimistic. This event is a reaction to the phenomena of the last few weeks. I hope that this tournament will be established on an annual basis.
To say that obviously the two teams but also the other teams like Aris, AEK, PAOK left a great legacy if we keep in mind the historical background of the last thirty years. Of course, that raises the expectations of the fans. Obviously, some dates related to Europe have changed. Obviously it’s a transition for our team due to its history.
The three-day Greek Cup is an important goal for us. We will give everything. The most important thing is to reach the highest level based on our skills. We want to get as high as possible to win the cup“.
For his part, o George Papagiannis He remarked, “We’re very excited to have the Final Four back. I wish all teams health. If the best wins, thanks for the hospitality in Heraklion.”
