Sasa Obradovic, after the defeat of Monaco: “A blackout like this almost never happens at this level”

Sasa Obradovic, coach of Monaco, eliminated in Euroleague semi-finals : “Before the game I said it shouldn’t be so painful if we lost, because we come here with less experience in this kind of event. But there is still bitterness after dominating and playing great basketball in the first half. […] It is not possible to give such a team a small chance to come back. […] Such a blackout almost never happens at this level. Then our confidence evaporated. »

Jordan Loyd, Monaco full-back: “It’s not the end of a dream, but a lesson. We have to learn from this game. We played two different matches in one. […] It’s very frustrating because we could do something, but we will come back stronger. People will say that we lacked experience but when we see how we started the match… We just regret our third quarter where we lost our footing. I don’t remember such a quarter at this level. »
