Quotes KK Zagreb vs. Dexia

09.12.2008

Elton Nesbitt, Dexia Player:

"In the first half we looked a little reserved, but we still managed to get the advantage.  In the second half we saw our chance, we saw that Zagreb were not able to keep up with us, which we quickly took advantage of. We knew the home team had problems with injuries and we took advantage."

Andrej Stimas, KK Zagreb Player:

"We were missing many player tonoght and to play against such an aggressive team was impossible for us.  I congratulate them on their victory, and we remain aware that the only way to return is to work hard day to day..  It was obvious how much we missed our injured players."

Chris Finch, Dexia Coach:

"In the first half it was a close match and we did a good job no to make too many mistakes.  In the second half we had a problem with their zone at first but eventually we established our tempo and it was too much for them." 

Denis Bajramovic, KK Zagreb Coach:

"All the ambitions and plans we had for this match could not be put into use for one reason.  Physically we were not equal to our guests, we could not keep track of their aggressive play.  In the first half we gave ourselves some hope that we could win but in the second half Dexia ran faster and jumped higher.  We still have no intention of surrender, with a little luck we can bounce back in Belgium."
