Javier Sabate: Gorenje have today played a good match. We’ve known it will be tougher than three weeks ago in Veszprem with Toskic back in their roster. He is really a complete player with whole lot of experience. They are totally different team with him on the court. However, I also want to congratulate my players as there was not much time for them to rest. Key moment was beginning of the second half when we’ve managed to achieve some steals and score easy goals. I wish Gorenje all the best in the rest of the season. I never talk about the referees but I feel it is the time to express it is not normal what we can get from the referees in Champions League and SEHA League in this season. I hope in the remaining part of the season the referees will be as correct and respectful with us as with the other teams. I wish good luck to the Velenje for the rest of the season. 

 

Gasper Marguc: We’ve played well in the first half but Gorenje have proved they are not a naive team. They can play very quick and score lots of fast break goals. We’ve decided the match in the beginning of the second half making 5-6 goal difference.

 

 

Borut Plaskan: Veszprem deserved to win this one. I, however, have a feeling we could have done more in this match, especially in opening 10 minutes of the second half. That period was costly. In that period Veszprem’s goalie made some great saves, we’ve lacked focus and they took the advantage. Despite of everything I can say I’m satisfied as we did not give up reaching a good result in the end.

 

Alem Toskic: We’ve lost the match in the beginning of the second half. However, I feel we did not actually lose anything with this match as it was a good lesson for us.
