THE Panathinaikos AKTOR made a convincing appearance at the “LDLC Arena” and got an important “double” on her Villerban by a score of 89-81, making it 7-7 thanks to his tremendous performance Kostas Sloukaswho played his best game on the greens!
After the match, Ergin Ataman spoke at the press conference about the great importance of winning against a “very good team”as he characterized Villeurbanne, while he focused on the contribution of Sluka and Antetokounmpo.
In detail what he said:
“For us it’s a very important victory because I think Villeurbanne has a very good team, with a very good roster. He has lost 4-5 matches in a row. But he has a coach like Ponceco, who is one of the most successful at national team level. But now he is a coach in a Euroleague team and he always plays like today. Until the last minute.
Our start was not so good in the first period, but then we were aggressive in defense and started to move the ball very well in attack, especially with Sluka, who had a great game. He had 18 points and 12 assists. The only thing that didn’t go well was the shots.
But in the end we got a big boost from Costa Antetokounmpo, especially on defense. We found our aggression again and got the win, which is very important. It won’t be easy for any team to come and win at the home of Villeurbanne.”
