Bartzokas: “We were shocked by Real’s high percentage of shots – Mentally we didn’t start well in the first half”

After yesterday’s lost semi-final in the Final 4 of Berlin by Real Madrid, o Olympic is invited to complete this year’s presence in the top four of the competition in the best possible way, facing Fener tomorrow (16:00) in the small final of the institution!

As part of today’s “red and white” training at the “Uber Arena”, o George Bartzokas spoke to press representatives about the details that brought about the exclusion, with the Greek coach standing on the poor mental approach of the “red and whites” in the first half.

The statements of Giorgos Bartzokas in detail:



“It needs a lot of study and approach and a lot of discussion, because we didn’t execute the plan at the beginning. We were shocked by Real’s high percentage of shots, but somehow we had to mark them better.

Mentally we didn’t start well in the first half. In the second we had a better mental approach and it showed because from 25 points we took the game to eight and we had the opportunity to get even closer. Obviously, if we started like that, we would have had a different luck in the game, not forgetting of course that Real were very strong and yesterday in a very good momentum.

Neither us, nor Real played a post game, with our backs. In essence, Real beat us a lot in transition and in these types of situations. It had to do with how we attacked and what opportunities we gave them to open the game which was our main goal not to happen.”
