Sasha Vezenkov spoke about the institution of the Cup, the conquest of which is the main goal of Olympiakos. The 27-year-old forward mentioned the improvement of his team since the beginning of the season, but also that their attention is turned to the match against Aris.
In detail what he said:
For the win against Ionian: “I dedicate the victory to my mother who is celebrating. We wanted to continue with our pace and for Peters to get games again. A crucial week in the season is coming and we have a big goal ahead of us.”
For the Cup: “We are definitely better than October. We have to win three matches, we see the one with Aris first. We’re leaving the Euroleague behind, we’re looking ahead.”
For the looming battle in the semi-finals with Panathinaikos: “Panathinaikos has a set of experienced and good players, they will claim the trophy. We look at our team. We see Aris, we want to be healthy and continue to play like we have been doing lately.”
For the good basketball that Olympiacos plays: “A team is not built overnight. We are some children 2 and 3 years together. Let’s not forget where we were before and where we are now. We were left out of the playoffs, the team had a hard time, two legends left. The whole group along with the coaching staff has built this here. What we play is a product of time.”
“We are hungry, we are not resting. Difficult nights will come, we must be united and play for each other.”
