“The Cyprus team has changed, the new coach has brought an important aspect of Greek football and Cypriot. Aggression, speed, air play are in the first place.
They use their qualities to the maximum, play with long balls and go out with the second ball. It can be seen in the progress they have made, putting in difficulty Bosnia and Austria, ”said Lucescu, at the beginning of the conference.
It is a result of forgetting the one with Canada. A very hard match awaits us. We set out to dispute this match like a final. As I said, we should not look at other results. We have 4 finals and we have to win them all.
– Marius Marin
“Canada played the game like an official match. Ours they performed, although we discussed what a victory for enthusiasm means … there were mistakes, lack of concentration, inattention. There were very good things, which I analyzed. I had opportunities, that means a lot.
I put the negative parts aside. At the 3 goals there were great mistakes. I was disappointed by the relaxing attitude. If we remove the 3 goals, we can consider a good match. I had opportunities, many shot, but I was not careful, “said Lucescu.
Lucescu: “Ours do not relax. The individual duels will be decisive”
“Cyprus has a high -value player, Kastanos. It will be a match in which they attack the man, push, create a state of imbalance. Ours not to relax. The individual duels will be decisive. We have a higher quality of passes. There are two different styles, we will see what game comes out.
