Olympiacos continued its frenzied run in the Euroleague, defeating Villeurbanne with a score of 81-55 and securing home field advantage in the playoffs, 3 games before the end of the regular season.
O Nikos Zervas he commented in his air News Bulletin 247 this result, stressing that it was another excellent (and expected) performance by Giorgos Bartzokas’ team. “Olympiacos was serious and did not underestimate Villerban, he did his job despite the absences. He won at idle and secured home advantage, which is very important although everyone expected it based on his performances. It is not an easy thing to do for the second year in a row in this Euroleague. Olympiacos had a bad three-point percentage for the second match in a row, but forced the French team into many mistakes. Bartzoka’s team has learned to play on the automatic by now”the “red and white” reporter emphasized about the match with Villeurbanne.
He was then asked to comment on the situation of Fal and Canaanwho did not play with Villerban, emphasizing that: “Fal won’t be an issue for the derby, Kanaan is a question mark and it will be seen if he turns up in training tomorrow. At the moment his mind is on his wife and his newborn child, maybe he won’t play with Panathinaikos”.
Finally, when asked about the not-so-significant turnout for the match against the French team, Mr Gervais he emphasized that “the attendance this year has exceeded all expectations, yesterday there were not many people because of the opponent and also because of the sold out for the derby on Friday”.
