Bologna –<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Luca Banchi’s words at the end of the win with Barcelona<\/strong>: “Tough game, Barcelona came here to impose their physicality and talent. At the beginning we did not respond well, we were chaotic and frantic, in the second half we were a better version of ourselves. Starting with defense, we also grew on offense. We had positive energy from everyone, I mention Lundberg who took a lot of responsibility in the second half. It’s important to win a game like this, it’s something we really needed, to show that this is the way we can compete in a very difficult tournament like this.”<\/em><\/p>\n The spark from the -16<\/strong>. “I think the common sense, to respond to an inertia that was penalizing us. The common and widespread sense of responsibility, everyone could have taken action to change the inertia. After halftime we compacted and found balance in our play and quality of defense. Spirit, dedication and a common sense of belonging to the team, which cannot do without everyone’s talent, but there is no one who can perform without the help of others.”<\/em><\/p>\n Virtus third, and beat second<\/strong>. “The victory gives us the knowledge that there is no future without an ounce of madness, the one put on the court in the second 20′, as well as discipline and spirit. We showed two faces, the first one scares me, and I hope not to see it again. It’s a team victory, a special night. We also took advantage of the pitch advantage, this crowd frame gives you extra energy. They are good kids, they care. And it’s not the coach’s victory, it’s the team’s victory.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":63247,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[307,268,256,248],"tags":[308,269,265],"class_list":["post-63262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-euroleague-en","category-primo-piano-en","category-a-league","category-news","tag-euroleague-en","tag-app-en","tag-evidence"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
