Head Coaches

MARKOPOULOS, SOULIS

PAOK Thessaloniki

"We are happy to get an important victory that we needed to move ahead. However, we probably thought that having won the first game in Hungary, this game should be easy enough, which it wasn't given the situation my team has been in following the recent Greek League game. We did not play well, especially in the second half, when we lost our concentration and allowed the opponent to press us and force mistakes on our part, mistakes that are unforgivable from players with the level of experience our team has. We need to work on this, work on the way we address the problems in the games, if we want to be successful to the end."

FRADE, CARLOS

Alba Fehervar

"Congratulations to PAOK, they are the better team and deserved to win. You cannot play with such low levels of energy when playing on the road and that is unforgivable on our part, we definitely need to learn to compete and learn faster than we seem to be doing. Hopefully we'll be better in the remaining games."

Players

BOGRIS, GEORGIOS

PAOK Thessaloniki

"It was a very important victory. We faced a lot of problems during the game, but what counts is that we won against a team that caused us many problems tonight as well as in the first game in Hungary. By now we are practically competing against two teams to seal qualification, we have two very difficult games ahead of us, but we believe in ourselves and that we'll be able to make the Last 32, which is our first goal for the season."

HOBBS, BRAYDON

Alba Fehervar

"We made a very bad start in the game and it cost us. We fought for 30 minutes, but we practically missed the first quarter, so we were trailing the whole game and it's very hard when you always try to come back. This has been actually happening from the beginning of the season, and although our coach has been constantly pointing this out, we don't seem to learn soon enough and correct this kind of attitude. Beating any team at this level on the road is very hard, especially trying to beat PAOK in their home court. We were better in almost all statistical categories except for turnovers and assists and I believe if could flip that we could have changed the history of this particular game. PAOK is a very good team, with very good players and they are almost qualified after this victory."
