Valencia Basket- Olympiacos Piraeus post-game quotes: Álex Mumbrú

08/02/2024

“Congratulations to Olympiacos, they are a great team, obviously to be at the top. I think they played a great game too. We were very involved for three quarters but there was a quarter in which we were a little collapsed, it started with fouls very early, we got into a bonus. We knew that there was a struggle on the rebound that we knew would be difficult without the big players. In the end we lost it but it wasn't a drain either. The game came from being aggressive, pressing the ball from above. And the fouls in the third quarter have greatly affected our game plan. From there they have gained an advantage, we have had to play with more rhythm, more hasty, thinking less. We held on in the game but in the end it was not enough. I don't have any buts with the players, I think they have given everything. We are in a good position at this point in the competition and prepared to fight until the end”
