Olympiacos coach José Luis Mendilibar, following the 0–1 away win against Panetolikos, stressed that he was not satisfied with his team’s performance; however, these are the kinds of wins that secure the title.
Below is the full press conference from the Basque coach:
Matches in which the team doesn’t play well but still wins – are these the ones that win you the championship?
We needed to win, and we wanted to win. We came here for the victory, but we did not play as well as we would have liked. I think the opponent was better than us; they had more chances. But we were clinical and scored, while the opponent lacked accuracy. It’s important for us that we won, even though we weren’t good, because we didn’t play as well as we should have to deserve the win. However, yes – when you manage to win these kinds of games, these matches win you the title.
