Chus Mateo: “I’m very proud of my team’s heart”
“We started well, we were in the fight and we were just short of closing out the game,” said Tavares.
Chus Mateo and Walter Tavares analysed the second playoff game against Olympiacos: “Today was a different game. We tried to fight until the end and I’m very proud of my players because they tried to give their best from the beginning of the game. Sometimes we were more successful, sometimes not so much during the whole game, but we fought until the end. I am very proud of my team’s heart”
“It's not easy to win here because their basketball atmosphere is incredible and they’re the Regular League champions in the Euroleague. In any case, we gave our all and in some moments we thought we could win in many moments of the game”.
Tavares: “We showed that we could win”
“We started the game very well, we were in the fight and we were just short of closing out the game. We showed that we could have won. Now we have another chance at home and with our people; we are not dead. We will try to take the game and go step by step. It's when Madrid are left for dead that they rise again and with our people we can do it”.
