Steve Konstantinidis: "Nea Salamina deserves to remain a class"

It is the game of the year for the team of Famagusta, as its final result can finally decide the stay of the "red and whites" in the category. The team has completed its preparation and the atmosphere is quite good. Read in detail what the Anglo-Cypriot coach of the team said on our website…

How do you see the game with Alki? Is it a final for you?
"It is a game for us like a final. If we beat Alki we have high hopes to stay in the top eight. It certainly depends on some results of other games, but if we win tomorrow (16/3) we have a lead. But let's take things in stride. Alki is a very good team. It is probably the most formed team in the league and it will not be easy for us at all. We also lost the first game at home with 1-0, which may have been a bit unfair for us. It's a very difficult game. "

Away from home, however, Nea Salamina is doing very well…
"It simply came to our notice then. May this thing be valid tomorrow (16/3). We really want the victory and we really want to stay in the category. I think based on the appearances we made this year and our results, we deserve it. "If there were no mistakes, we would have at least five more points."

Are there enough options for a strong team?
"For the first time with Omonia and after several months we had no problems."

Recently, the president made some statements and said that he would discuss with you the renewal of your contract. Personally, how do you see the possibility of continuing in Nea Salamina?
"The only thing that worries me now is these two games that we have left to ensure our stay. When we are safe, then I will sit down and think about Steve's future. Whether he is in Salamina or not I do not know at the moment. "The only thing that concerns me is to keep this team in the category because it deserves it, based on the appearances that have been made this year".

How important is the world in such a game?
"It simply came to our notice then. They are close to us in all the games and I think tomorrow (16/3) they have understood the criticality of the match. We must all be there to help the players and win this difficult game. "

Gray outside, Leon inside
The only problem for the technical leadership is the absence of the punished Gray. All the other players are at the disposal of Steve Konstantinidis, who is preparing to make several changes. Given is the return of Leon to the starting lineup, while it is very likely that Grimes and Lambropoulos will get a basic jersey.
