‘We were disappointed after England, we showed against Finland that we could react’

Greece’s national team achieved something historic in Helsinki on Sunday night (17/11), as a 2-0 victory marked the first “blue and white” double on home soil of Finland in their 10th attempt.

THE Dinos Mavropanos after the finale of the match, he gave statements, with the 26-year-old international stopper standing on the multitude of options that Ivan Jovanovic has in each position, while he also made a mini assessment of the progress of the national team in the Nations League.

The statements of Dinos Mavropanos in detail

For the match and the first victory of the national team in Helsinki: “We are very happy that we managed and won. We showed that we could react after the England game and a performance that certainly did not convince us too and we were disappointed.

I think we were very good today. Finally we broke the pomegranate and got the victory in Helsinki. In general, we played well with our new coach. If we look at it in terms of points, we are equal with England and unfortunately the goal difference in the matches between us does not give us the lead. So I think everything went as planned.

What can the National Team expect in the next draws and in its next obligations: “The positive thing is that we secured a place in the second capacity group in the World Cup qualifiers and from there we also have the Nations League playoffs, which we want to raise one more level. So, we are looking forward to the next matches.”

For the many options that exist in the national team, especially in the center of defense: “It’s nice to have a high level in the team and even more so in the stopper positions. We have very good players both defensively and offensively. All the guys who are here deserve it. It’s the coach’s decision after all and everyone supports each other” .
