Euro League
The autographs, the selfies and the applause of the leader Papanikolaou
The Olympiacos players’ autographs to the team’s young friends and Kostas Papanikolaou’s applause in the stands stand out in the red and white side camera of the game against Valencia.
The Olympiakos players spent a lot of time with the team’s little friends before the game against Valencia at SEF on Matchday 14 of the EuroLeague, signing autographs and taking commemorative selfies. After all, they know that they are role models or heroes for many children.
The game didn’t have a happy ending for the Red and Whites, they lost 56:63, but the team’s captain, Kostas Papanikolaou, didn’t miss the opportunity to return the applause from the spectators in the stands by leaving the field.
