Kozer: “I was lucky with Sluka’s shot – I had my wife in the hospital”

THE Fabian Coser he put his own little rock in the eleventh European of Real. The French guard described the last two phases of the final against Olympiakos and how he experienced them.

“We believed it, even though Olympiacos had a lead of 6-7 points and some whistles hurt us a lot. We couldn’t find solutions. But in the end our veterans were fantastic. Before our last offense we knew we were going to play a pick and roll, but we didn’t know who was going to get the ball. I told the coach not to attack Walkup, because he is the best man-to-man in the Euroleague. Yul took the attack and luck smiled on us, because he could miss“, he emphasized.

“In the last defense, the coach was going to put Goss on Sluka, but he was cold and I told him to put me. In the end I was lucky, because I lost my balance when he feinted and could have made the shot“, he added.

As for why she cried at the end? “I had a difficult season with injuries, I lost a member of my family in it, while my wife, who is pregnant, was in the hospital on Sunday morning because she was sick. Luckily she got well and was able to come on the pitch, I knew I was going to give everything for her and that’s why I was emotional when the match ended“, he stated.
