Bosnia and Herzegovina national "A" football team head coach Mehmed Bazdarevic and captain Edin Dzeko held a press conference this evening at the stadium Karaiskakis where they answered journalists' questions, and stated their opinions and expectations regarding tomorrow's qualifier.

Baždarević: "All is well when it comes to players' health. Sead Kolasinac arrived, he trained and feels really good. There are no problems with other members, and hopefully they'll be ready and willing to give their best tomorrow. We've worked well, the atmosphere is great which is very important, and I hope we'll achieve a positive result. We want to win, but one point wouldn't be so bad either.

Every game has its own perks, we shouldn't look to the past and how someone played years ago. Greece is a strong team, but we have our own qualities. We have to be up to the task tomorrow, and work hard on the field in order to create problems for our opponent."

Four years ago, a draw in Athens opened the door to the World Cup in Brazil for our team. Media representatives were interested in whether the team can repeat something like that tomorrow, and this is what Dzeko said: "I think that match of four years ago can't help us tomorrow, nor it will be similar to the upcoming game. Although I wouldn't mind us playing a draw again and qualifying for the World Cup. This is one of the most important games in this qualifying cycle, both for us and for Greece. Home stadium may be an advantage for them, which at some point could become an additional pressure for us. We should all focus, get ready for the game, and give our best. It's the only way to reach a favorable result tomorrow."

Due to injury, Dzeko's teammate Manolas won't be playing tomorrow: "He's one of the best defenders in the Italian Serie A, and it will be good for us that he's not in the lineup. But Greece has other defensive players who are very good and play in strong leagues. However, I hope his lack of presence will make our job easier."

Media representatives who have been granted accreditation for the said match, but couldn't take it tonight, will be able to do so tomorrow from 16:00 to 21:15 hours at the Karaiskakis stadium (media gate number 6, next to the VIP entrance).
