Rubén Burgos and Cristina Ouviña post second leg Round of 8 EuroCup Women vs BC Polkowice

02/02/2022

Coach Rubén Burgos said that "the players and the staff are happy with the pass because we knew it was going to be complicated and that Polkowice, as they did in their previous round, played a very good game in the rival's court without any problem. I put in value, and it is something that makes us suffer and that the fans will have had a hard time, but these games also have to be won. We have experience in that, in winning from the defense and we have seen it last season. This season maybe we are having a little more accuracy and fluidity, our scoring is higher, but I liked that the players knew how to suffer and fight until the last moment, how to come off the bench in the last minutes to give a plus back and to close each rebound and each one for one".


For her part, player Cristina Ouviña said that "it was a completely different game in terms of toughness to what we found there. They were tough, but they have set the bar three times higher, which is something we have to be prepared for because now I think everyone is going to play like that. If you can't win because of talent you're going to win however you can. I think we didn't have good spacing, from what we were doing in the game there, which was to find well the continuations of the pivots, they stopped us very well and we were a little lost. But in the end I think we put more heart and we have lowered the ass. What Rubén told us, if we can't score, at least we can't score and they can't score and that's what we did. We believed in the last three minutes and we got out of this tie, which has been very complicated".
