Michel reflected on “a great moment” for Olympiakos as the Greek champion beat England’s champion, Manchester United, 2-0 at the Karaiskakis Stadium. “Tobeat a great side like United in the manner we beat them is very special,” the coach said. “I can’t hide my joy. I feel proud of my players. It was a great moment for us.”
The formerSpain international noted that there is still a long way to go before the series is decided: “But we must look ahead to the second leg. We still have the match at Old Trafford. We expect adifferent United at Old Trafford, we have huge respect for them. Anyone who thinks 2-0 is enough to qualify is mistaken: 2-0 is not enough to get through against United at Old Trafford. We have tokeep on working to make it through and make history.”
