Today’s matchup Mars with AEK was very important for Giorgos Delizisis, who made the last appearance of his career as he retires from active action.
The Greek central defender emphasized that his own chapter closed today, while pointing out that it was a special moment for him.
The statements made by Giorgos Delizisis:
“It was a special moment for me, I thank the people for their applause, it shows that they recognize my contribution. I love them. I thank the president for the desire to come and play even for a minute, I thank my coach, Akis Manzios.
These six years I spent a lot in this team in difficult years, I thank God for the strength he gave me to play these years. I also thank a man who is no longer with us, Pavlos Myroforidis, thanks to him I also came to Mars.
My own chapter closed today, from tomorrow the team starts work for the final of the Cup. That’s all we have in mind, we know how much people want it, we will do everything to bring it to Thessaloniki”.
For his future: “I can still play, just not at a high level. But I want so badly to close my career on Mars, so I have no more motivation to play, I leave… full. I wish I could play one more minute in the next few games but the end of the season finds me giving up football.”
For the match with AEK: “The children gave their soul, we conceded the second goal from an inaction. We continue, we don’t give up any games, we look at the next match against Olympiakos. As befits a great team like Aris, we will chase the victory”.
For Akis Manzios: “He’s a coach I love and he deserves to be in a big team.”
