APOEL manager Giorgos Donis had this to offer ahead of today's European encounter (via UEFA): "We have a massive game against an impressive side who are looking to win this competition. They have a wealth of quality individual players in a big squad. As for us, our aim is to be competitive in every game and to get as many points as we can. I believe that at home, although we respect our opponents, we need to show our strength."
"We head into this game in the same manner as our previous two games in this competition," he added. "For us, every game is crucial and we aim to do our utmost on the pitch. Even in Barcelona we were still in it right up until the end, while against Ajax we could have won. I don't expect this game to be any different. We can compete against them and I believe we will."
