On the will and the tremendous passion shown by his players in the victorious second final of the Basket League against Olympiakos, the Christos Serelis.
After bidding farewell to Vezenkov, the Panathinaikos coach spoke about the game and expressed his relief that his team finally had a big shot that gave them the big win.
In detail what the coach of Panathinaikos said:
“First of all, bye to Vezenkov, I hope he is not seriously injured. What gave us the victory today was the tremendous will and passion we showed. We have lost three games to Olympiakos since I took over, all in the details.
After the losses of Olympiakos, we were stressed and we weren’t making the right choices in attack. We had faith, tremendous spirit and passion, we played good defenses and for the first time this year we made a big shot and won the match”.
For the last three points: “We had planned to play on Peters, we have players with experience and personality to play one-on-one”.
On Olympiakos’ undefeated run in derbies that has come to an end: “In the last five minutes of the match, as much as we say that our players are not thinking about anything other than the match, there is a weight on their minds. This made us hesitant to attack. After a year we finally made the big shot and won”.
For the third final: “I have nothing to say at the moment, from tomorrow we will look at the third game”.
