Defeated by Spain’s Unicaja Malaga 79-74 in the fifth-week match of Turkish Airlines Euroleague game, Anadolu Efes head coach Velimir Perasovic stated his thoughts at the post-game press conference:
“This loss was hard to believe for us. Especially, while leading until the last minutes of the game, losing is very upsetting. I congratulate Unicaja Malaga. We have started the match in a bad way. Though in the second and third quarters we played better and held the control of the match. We became mentally down when our rival recorded 3 consecutive three-pointers in the last quarter and lost the match. This is a tough situation. We have lost three matches in our home. We have to change many things and start to win matches in order to be better. We are in a tough league, every rival is strong and victories are very tough…”
