I believe we played a good game against Karditsa in the League. However, we know that the quality of our opponent can cause many problems. Especially in games where Karditsa play without a lot of pressure, they become more dangerous. I hope we remain focused and react to any possible surprise that may come our way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Qualifying directly for the BCL Round of 16 was an achievement, but we want to keep moving forward.
