AEK head coach Jose Luis Oltra commented on his side's 1-0 win over Dnipro 1 in the first leg of the Conference League 1/16 final yesterday in Larnaca.
Jose Luis Oltra"I'm very happy with the result. The game was hard for us. But we were able to play with concentration and without mistakes in defense. We tried to play first number one and play high, but it was not easy, because Dnipro 1 is a very good team with quality players in the squad.
Even though we had our chances, but we can say that we were saved by the standard position. We made use of it. Unlike the opposition.
Overall, I think we played well. At the same time, we acted with a healthy degree of risk. So, overall, I am very pleased. I can't say anything about my players except that they were real fighters and our goalkeeper was excellent as always," said Oltra after the match with Dnipro 1.
