At the press-conference which was held before the responsive match with Portuguese “Maritimo” in play-off of Europe League, Temur Shalamberidze chairman of “Dila” stated that his team will try to play its football.
-    What kind of situation is in the club, who missed the upcoming match due from injured players, or they returned you?
-   Situation is normal, players are determined. Shashiashvili will miss the upcoming match due to disqualification and Arziani, Modebadze, Aladashvili and Gvalia will not be able to play due to injury. I would like to mention that Modebadze injured his groin and Aladashvili his muscle. Tomashvili returned but he is not ready yet, because he did not have playing practice.
-    Who will replace Shashiashvili?
-    I do not know yet.
-    What will be changed in comparison with other matches of “Dila”?
-    As I noticed, it is impossible to play open football in Europe League. Even one mistake is not forgiven.  We have to play our football. The first match showed us that “Maritimo” is not unbeatable club.
-    What “Dila” needs for victory?
Gogita Gogua: - It is not unbeatable and we will do our best for victory. It is not good to run with helter-skelter for scoring goal at the beginning of the match. It goes without saying that we have to attack because it is home match and fans support us. “Maritimo” has technical football players and they defend their team very well. But every team has its weak point. We worked for several days for using rival’s weak points.
-    In the previous matches “Dila” Gori received a lot of yellow cards. Are not you going to do anything for avoiding it?
-    We are so experienced players that we really have to think about it. You are right.
-    You played two different periods in Portugal. In the first period you looked quite well, but in the second period you played badly..
Temur Shalamberidze: - I cannot agree with you, we played better than each our rivals in the second period. It would be good if we did not receive goal. When we attacked, we have some moments in the second time.
-    What about “Maritimo”? what we have to expect from this team?
-    “Maritimo” is tied team and there are experienced players in it. But our players followed instructions and in the first time our rival did not have any moment. To my mind, “Anarthosis” had stronger players than “Maritimo”.
On August 30, at 20:00 o’clock is held the match at “Mikheil Meskhi” stadium. Tickets cost 5 GEL.
