Eurocellulari Roseto
"I'm very satisfied for the game of my team after our bad night just two days ago in Udine in the Italian league. We reacted well and had the right approach to the game. We had an outstanding performance from long distance and now we can really fight to reach one of the first four places in the group. I'm disappointed because there were few fans tonight and they welcomed us wisthling! Several players were affected by this, we need our fans here, just to help us, nothing more."

"First of all, congratulations to Roseto. They have played an excellent game, with an incredible shooting perfomance and it's very difficult to beat a team shooting this way. We tried but we were close just for the first half and the first two minutes of the second period, then there was nothing to do. I have to say my team has played an average game playing with good concentration but to win, we should play shooting better than them."
