Despodov: “I am not the star of the game, but of the team. Lucescu had to shout at me because I made a mistake”
Kirill Despodov told COSMOTE TV immediately after PAOK’s comfortable victory over Kifissia that it was not because of this star, but because of the entire team as a whole.
Kirill Despodov was the protagonist of PAOK in the victory over Kifissia, but in his statements after the game he seemed devastated because for him it was not this “star” but the entire team with its overall image.
In detail, what Kirill Despodov said to COSMOTE TV: About the game, whether: “I think I wasn’t the star of the game, but the whole team was. I’m very happy that we had a big day today with six goals. We didn’t relax at half-time, six different players scored the goal. I try to do my best every day and work hard to fulfill the coach’s “wishes” on the field“.
About the shouts Lucescu gave him: “Of course the coach will shout, that’s his job and the mentality of the team. We don’t have an oligarchy until the referee stops the game. He had to yell at me because I made a mistake on the field“.
What applies from 2023: “I would like to keep the good times, stay healthy and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays“.
