Mateo Maric: 'I Don't Hold Grudges Against Berg and I'm Waiting for My Chance'

Mateo Maric, a player for Omonia, spoke to Croatian media ahead of the upcoming match against Rijeka. Maric stated that his contract expires in the summer and he has no specific plans for the future, but he is focused on winning the championship with Omonia. He referred to the decision of Henning Berg not to include him in the starting lineup, emphasizing that he does not hold grudges against the coach and is waiting for a new opportunity. He expressed his optimism for the match against Rijeka, but acknowledged that it will be a difficult game, as Rijeka is the Croatian champion and has improved its form. He believed that Omonia has a slight advantage due to its European experience, having competed in Europa and Conference League groups in recent years.
