Genk coach: Dinamo has nothing to lose, everything is still not over

– The big defeat against Standard did not shake our confidence. We lacked sharpness, we weren’t compact and we didn’t have enough quality with the ball. This surprised me, because these things have been much better in the past six weeks. We mentioned all this at meetings and individually, we are aware of these mistakes – he said.

He also touched on the statement of the legend of Genk, Branka Struparawho said that Genk već 80 percent in the round of 16 of the Europa League.

– I don’t think like Strupar, in percentages. We put ourselves in a good starting position, but at Inter-Bodø/Glimt you also saw that surprise is always possible. Watch the first match between Club Brugge and Atlético. At halftime it was 0-2, and it ended 3-3. Dinamo has nothing to lose, in a match one team can suddenly gain momentum and you have to try to bring it under control as soon as possible, and it will be all or nothing. Yes, we will miss Karetsas, we will see how long he will be, but now it is up to someone else to stand out – he stressed.

The match was announced by Zakaria El Ouahdi who checkedmate twice in Livakovićin Zagreb.

– We are ready for this match. Our legs are lighter than against Standard. That was a painful defeat. Maybe we underestimated them, but we have to forget that game. We have to focus on Dinamo. We want to win every game, even if we have an advantage from the first match. Dinamo is still a team with a lot of quality. They were very strong in transition. We solved that well in Croatia, and now we will have to do it again – he said.
