The head coach of the Cypriot AEK, Jose Luis Oltra, summed up the results of yesterday's match with Dynamo Kyiv (3:3) in the 5th round of the Europa League group stage. Recall that these results brought the club from Larnaca to the playoffs of the Conference League.
Jose Luis Oltra“I am very pleased with what we have achieved tonight. With this result, we wrote not only the history of AEK, but also the history of Cyprus. I'm proud of our team. All of it is now celebrating well-deserved success.
But the game against Dynamo was difficult. We opposed a team led by a talented, special coach. Therefore, it is not surprising that we were beaten in the last minutes of the match (“Dynamo”, we recall, managed to win back after the score 1:3 - ed. note).
From my point of view, AEK has been playing amazingly in European competitions this season. Yes, we lost to Rennes and Fenerbahce, but we also showed very good football in these matches. Our football players are warriors, not just players! They want to play, try hard in every game. All I have to say to them is a big thank you because they are always fighting. I'm very happy. And the players of my team are always the main characters. The important thing is that the team creates history. This AEK has ambitions and is growing. I grow with her. I want to achieve even more with AEK,” Oltra said after the match against Dynamo.
