Head coach of the national team of Greece Michael Skibbe said that in the play-offs of the 2018 World Cup against Croatia, his team will bet on defense.

Michael Skibbe believes that the Greek national team will be an underdog in the play-offs of the World Cup against Croatia.

"My players, who have extremely high international experience, mainly play in the defense. It would be foolish not to use it, "- said Skibbe.

"The Croats are an incredibly experienced team with such stars as Modric, Rakitic or Manjukic. They are the clear favorites. But in the group match against Belgium (1: 1) we have already shown that we are able to achieve a positive result, being outsiders ".

The match between the teams of Croatia and Greece will be held on Thursday, November 9. The beginning of the meeting at 21:45 Kiev time.
