Chus Mateo: ‘’The team is playing solidly and consistently‘’
"The key was to be focused on the game, and with the support of our fans, we were able to win it," said Tavares.
Chus Mateo and Tavares analysed Real Madrid's victory over Paris Basketball in Euroleague game 33. The coach said after the game at the Movistar Arena: “There's still one game to go, but we're making a big effort in this final stretch of the regular season and hopefully we'll reap the rewards."
"I don't know if we're at the best moment of the season because I think we still have a lot of room for improvement, but now we're playing solidly and consistently. It's not easy to win 13 Liga games in a row or 5 in a row in the Euroleague, but we still have room for improvement. The team is making the effort we need to recover from a bad start."
Opponents
"Their shooting accuracy can affect you at times. They are players who shoot really well. We saw where the trouble was coming from in the last game they played in Athens. They've been playing very well all year and deserve to qualify too."
Tavares: "With the support of our fans, we were able to win"
"The key was having our heads in the game. That's how they've been all season, and we saw that today. They play very fast, they have two or three plays that they do to perfection. Everyone knows what they have to do and it's all very automated. It was very difficult for us but we were focused and with the support of our fans, we were able to win it."
