The head coach of the Greek Olympiacos, Jose Luis Mendilibar, summarizing yesterday’s match in the Round of 16 of the Europa League against the Norwegian Bodo/Glimt (2:1), also touched on the topic of the double scored in this match by the Ukrainian forward of his team, Roman Yaremchuk.
"I do not regret not starting Yaremchuk in the starting lineup. That’s why he scored two goals, because he came on in the second half. We do not know what would have happened if he had started the game from the first minutes. But he did exactly what the team needed at that moment. And for him, it was very important. He helped the team a lot, and I’m sure this will inspire him to do it again in the future. We have a lot of games ahead, and we need this.
This time Yaremchuk was on point, but in the previous match, when he started, he did not score a single goal. So we will never know what would have happened if Yaremchuk had started from the first minutes. You never know these things,” Mendilibar quoted sport24.gr.
