Angelopoulos: “The titles in Greece are 8-1 since we came back – Petrusev won the match”

With him Sasha Vezenkov to take him by the hand Olympic scoring 10 points in the last 4′, the “red and white” won the big derby over Panathinaikos (85-86) and won the Super Cup again.

After the match, the Angelopoulos brothersowners of the “red and whites”, focused on the importance of this title, on the fact that the season still has a long way to go, but also on the great domestic securities from the “greens”, after his return Olympiakou from A2.

The statements of Panagiotis Angelopoulos:

For the absences of the two teams: “Panathinaikos will speak for the analysis of Panathinaikos. We were missing Fal and Milutinov, our two tall guys. The team is not one hundred percent ready. The profit of today’s match, as well as of yesterday’s match, is Petrusev, who I believe has now understood that he will stay at Olympiacos and that he will have a career at Olympiacos”

For the principles in the Olympiakos game: “I think the principles are the same, the players we have are so good and the threat from the three-pointer, so we will score more points. Surely the defense will improve even more.”

On whether there will be a final between Olympiakos and Panathinaikos in the EuroLeague: “I don’t know if it will be the historic final. This is not our concern. It is too early to talk about all this. It is the start in the Euroleague that is strongest this year. The goal is first the double in Fenerbahçe, to enter the top six, to enter the playoffs and then the Final Four”.

The statements of Giorgos Angelopoulos

“Today the first title was decided, very important for us. It was not just a fight but a title. In Greece since we came back the titles are 8-1, there is a lot of competition, which is very high and very difficult for that and that does not mean anything, that it will continue for life. The games you saw are judged on points and how competitive they are. They will be very good games. The point is for people to enjoy them.”

On whether Sasha Vezenkov was the best: “The whole team won, the coach builds the team. Sasha was decisive but it was a team effort, I can’t single out any one player. Everyone was nice and helped equally.”
