The statements of Petros Mandalos after the victory of the Greek National Team with 2-0 over Finland in Helsinki for the 6th matchday of the Nations League.
The Greek national team prevailed 2-0 in Helsinki against Finland and closed its presence in League B of the Nations League with 15 points.
In his statements after the match, Petros Mandalos did not hide the anticipation that exists among the internationals for the return of the blue and white team in a major event.
In detail what he said to the NOVA camera:
“My first thoughts are that we’re 15 points short, that if you’d told us we’d put in all that effort and come second we’d all be signing it. We put in an effort that leaves us a bit bitter, but we’re on the right track.”
On how they handled the defeat to England: “For sure I think as the game came to a full OAKA we lost with that score we were bitter because we were bitter to the people. After two days we had a different game. We have the players and also the team to manage such situations.”
For the fact that the National Team has achieved great things: “I didn’t know it’s our first double in Finland, yesterday I found out that we hadn’t won here. Things will be great when the National Team is in a big event, which is our goal.”
For the progress the National Team has shown since the first Nations League until today: “For sure the national team is moving forward, it has found its way and it’s only a matter of time before it finds itself in a big competition and becomes a habit.”
For the upcoming World Cup Qualifiers: “A lot of footballers at the moment were asking when is the draw for the qualifiers. We live for it, we don’t hide it. We are waiting how and how to listen to the teams, start, give our best and go to a big competition.”
On being reunited with the rest of the internationals in March: “It’s ugly, strange. That’s what the national team has, but we’ll live with it.”
