Post-game quotes: Jaume Ponsarnau and Joan Sastre

Jaume ponsarnau

In the game we were both teams playing one-on-one. In the first half, starting with good feelings, especially defensive running, we have been finding fluidity. Today we have so many turnovers and in the first half many good actions that are almost very good in defense that would have allowed us to steal or catch a rebound, but they have punished us and they have obtained ten points of their merit there and to look for it in the that we have missed that last defensive moment. That feeling has made us make mistakes at half-time and we have gone wrong, we have missed two balls by starting easy at the bottom, Manresa playing very well in defense with his details and his concept and they have come to dominate all the sensations of the game. We badly behind and badly forward, perhaps in attack we have wanted to look for individualities and we have become frustrated in that search. And they have played as a team and have put the game to win it themselves. Our last response has been very good, very intense, very aggressive, very strong. And we have found a way from defense to change the game and also with the inspiration of Fernando who has helped us with difficult baskets.

 

Joan Sastre

It was a tough and complicated game for 40 minutes, Manresa played very well, he put us in a lot of problems and we reached a tight end in which I think we have taken a step forward in defense, we have tightened more, we have raised lines and we were more successful than them in the final minutes and I think that has led to victory in our favor. Manresa has always been one of the most difficult courts to play away from home and without an audience it showed.
