JOVANOVIC: “WE HAVE TO BE SATISFIED WITH EVERYTHING WE HAVE DONE THIS SEASON”

In the game of the last 26th round of the ABA league in Ljubljana, Mega Soccerbet lost to Cedevita Olimpija with 85:79 (19:30, 20:20, 26:15, 20:14). Coach Vladimir Jovanovic’s team had the advantage for most of the match in Arena Stozice, which at one point amounted to 15 points, but the home team first catched minus at the end of the third quarter, and in the very finish with two three-pointers from difficult positions came to victory.

At the press conference after the game, Mega’s coach Vladimir Jovanovic pointed out that he must be satisfied with everything that his team has done this season:

– I think it was a very interesting game at the end of the ABA league. We led most of the game and showed a very good game, we controlled one of the best attacks of the ABA league, if not the best. While we were succeeding in that, we kept the result on our side, where we were better in both rebounds and assists. in the end, that shot for three had cost us defeat. They gave those shots for three at very important moments at the end of the attack, but that was not a coincidence as they have already done so this year. We came weakened without Petrusev, without which we have been playing for a long time and with two very young players, this game was important for us to do our best and I think that we played well for the most of the game for a minute and a half, two until the end. I would like to congratulate Cedevita Olimpija on the previous part of the season in both competitions and wish me good luck in the continuation of the season. I would also like to congratulate my guys, we were unlucky, we didn’t finish the ABA league the way we wanted, but we have to be happy with everything we’ve done this season,

said Jovanovic.
