The head coach of the Cypriot Aris, Alexey Shpilevsky, said that he was pleased with the team’s performance at the start of the season.

Aris, which includes Russian forward Alexander Kokorin, scored 14 points in 7 matches of the Cypriot championship and is in second place in the standings. The team is one point behind the leading Apollo from Limassol. This season, Aris is participating in the group stage of the Europa League for the first time. After two rounds, the Cypriot club is leading Group C with 3 points, ahead of the Czech Sparta, the Scottish Rangers and the Spanish Betis.

— We always strive for the best, but overall we can be satisfied. Still, this is the first time the guys have had such experience, so many important and difficult matches, so I think we’re doing well so far. It is clear that especially in the championship we want to confirm our maximum. When you have the status of a champion, your opponents see and greet you differently, especially on the road. Total resistance on all sides. The guys, especially in the last two matches, did a fantastic job considering the busy schedule.

— What will be the maximum for Aris in the Europa League?

“It would probably be wrong to say that.” This is our first time participating in this tournament, and we are still trying to find ourselves, to find out how ready we are, what is missing. We will go from match to match. I don’t want to get ahead of myself. I think we played two games very well,” Metaratings.ru quotes Shpilevsky.
