Jaume ponsarnau

 

Our staging was good, we came out focused. We tried to prevent them from finding shots that they like despite the fact that they are a super efficient team. In attack we were playing well because despite their defensive toughness, we were playing dynamic and that has been key for us to find our basketball. We have found inspired players who have given us points, who have given us mentality, who have given us competitive ability. We had a difficult moment in the second quarter but as a team we responded and I think we had a very solid second half, continuing to pass the ball well and with many players adding. We had a problem in the game, which was the rebound, but also because we put ourselves in unadjusted situations so that they did not find those shots they are used to, but that has made us lose rebound positions and that is what Barça has done. played very well. The team has remained calm and the offensive capacity has given us the game.

 

Sam Van Rossom

 

It was a highly contested match, in the first half the two teams were very successful. In the second half I think that we a little more than Barça, we adjusted our defense a little and they found fewer shots like the ones in the first half. For our part, I think we played a very good game, moving the ball in attack, with a lot of assists. A very important victory for us to get into the fight to be in the Cup
