A big disappointment in Maccabi Tel Aviv after the dramatic loss tonight (Thursday) 73:71 to Zenit St. Petersburg after the mistake of Scotty Wilbkin right on the buzzer.
"It's hard to talk after the way we lost the game tonight," admitted Yannis Sapropoulos.
"With the way we played in the second half and the fact that we already have an advantage in the last few seconds, it's very difficult to lose that way. We were already ready to steal the game."
"We are very disappointed," the Greek coach continued.
"And I'm very worried about the way we opened the first quarter and the first half. In the first half we allowed them to score 41 points and made only 3 fouls. The gap we gave them to open was too big, but we did not give up and came back slowly. We need one more good defensive move to complete the job. "
Were we wrong?
Fixed!
