Chus Mateo: “Either team could have won”
“We had a good lead, but we lost two rebounds and they sank two three-pointers”, said the coach after the clash with Baskonia.
Chus Mateo analysed the match between Real Madrid and Baskonia at the WiZink Center, in Round 27 of the EuroLeague: "We had a good lead at the end of the match, at 78-71, but we lost two rebounds and they sank two three-pointers. It was a tight game that either team could have won.”
"Obviously, we're annoyed that we lost. We didn't have our best game, particularly offensively with 17 turnovers. We didn't pass the ball well enough and we lost decisive defensive rebounds. We were punished for our mistakes. They shot well from the three-point line, it's not incidental. And we were unable to stop Thompson.”
Tavares and Yabusele
“Tavares worked incredibly hard to make it to this game. Yabusele has hurt his knee and let's hope it's nothing serious. "
