The coaches of both teams, Henning Berg and Ricardo Sa Pinto, spoke about the match, expressing their optimism that their team will win the trophy.
Here are their statements in detail:
Henning Berg (Omonia coach): “We’re certainly looking forward to the Super Cup match. We’re very happy that we won the league last year. Paphos also won the cup last year and competed in the Champions League; they’re a very good team.
I expect it to be a good, competitive, and difficult match, but also a high-quality one, since there will be many talented players on the field.
Also, the fact that a trophy is at stake gives the match even greater prestige.”
Ricardo Sa Pinto (Paphos coach): “The Super Cup match will definitely be a tough one. Two very good teams will be competing, and the small details will make all the difference.
Our goal is to win a title we’ve never won before. We don’t yet have a Super Cup trophy in our trophy case, and we’re dreaming that we can make it happen.
We expect to play a very good game, and we expect the fans to be behind us. Everyone supports us and believes in our team. We’re waiting for them at the stadium and hope that we’ll finally manage to win this trophy for the team, the fans, and our city.”
