With a great protagonist Evan Fournier in the final of the “Eternal” derby, o Olympic he took the matzara on himself Panathinaikos AKTOR with a score of 94-89 for the 8th matchday of the Euroleague at the packed OAKA!
The experienced French guard/forward gave the Reds a roar when the ball was on fire, scoring eight points in the final three minutes of the game to finish with a game-high 22 points!
Speaking to the EuroLeague camera, the former NBAer referred to big three-pointer he scored in front of Cedi Osman 2:53′ before the final for Piraeus’ 83-85, revealing the thoughts that went through his mind, both before and after the execution of the shot!
In detail what he said:
“We were ahead for about the whole game and they went on a run, so we had to break their momentum. We had an unusual possession and I had the ball at the top of the three-pointer. I wanted to make something happen. I thought the lane to the right was open, but at that time I got a shot, which I work on every day. That’s why I felt comfortable taking it. I put a little more curve and it came in, so I’m happy.
These games are fun. That’s why they exist. Winning away from home is a special feeling when the crowd keeps shouting and shouting. To hear them go silent when you score in a good phase… It’s an incredible feeling. I let my excitement show, the celebration was nothing personal.”
