Sasha Vezenkov for Olympiacos: “Unacceptable image, we cannot be out of touch about something”

He described his image as unacceptable for 30 minutes against Lavrio and explained that his team had a “sniff” image, although it should not. At the same time, Sasha Vezenkov also mentioned the next Olympic match with Zalgiris at the SEF and noted that Andrea Trinkeri has shown his job as coach of the Lithuanian team, highlighting the difficulty of sending the “reds” to the Friday game (11.10.2024, 21:15) What Sasha Vezenkov told ERT after the match: For that no match will be easy in the league : “Congratulations in Lavrio, 32 minutes played with energy and passion. We miss toughness. Given that we can score 93 points, especially in the league. We have to go in hard from the beginning, manage time. Our image was unacceptable. We lost the fighting, the rebounds. We want to win all the trophies, we need to focus on the game with Zalgiris and show a better picture.” Whether the team was exhausted from losing to Fenerbahce: “We can’t be upset about something. A little numb, shouldn’t be. We have 33 more games in Euroleague. The most important thing is to take all the games to the SEF and get as much as we can out of it. It’s over, let’s go to the next game. Surely we must work on cohesion, on our roles, on helping everyone as much as they can.” For the return of Fal and Milutinov : “Frightful quality players, each with their strengths. Then we’ll have a full picture of the team. But whoever’s missing, that’s why we’re so many players to keep the level up. Well done in Lavrio, look at ourselves and go further.” For the game with Zalgiris : “Coach Trincieri has shown his work, how he prepares his team, with experienced players, with tough kids. Shock Barcelona. There is no easy game in Euroleague, nor in the Greek league. We must win, protect our home and move on.”
