The students of Geogrios Vovoros defeated “Lietkabelis” at home 88:84 and jumped to the fifth place in the standings.
The Uostamias team was led by Ažuolas Tubelis, who scored 22 points in 34 minutes (5/8 doubles, 2/5 triples, 6/8 penalties), rebounded 5 balls and collected 26 utility points.
After the match, the Neptuno strategist was happy about the extended winning streak.
“Congratulations to our team. They had a great game against a team that is one of the best in the league. As I told the players before the game, the energy and intensity will need to be maintained. It is very important to deal with emotions as well. There were a lot of them in the first part of the match. But we played well and won.”
This is already the seventh victory of the port city in a row and the third victory against “Lietkabelis” this season.
True, G. Vovoras did not emphasize the series of victories and emphasized that looking far into the future is an evil for both players and coaches.
“If something works, there’s nothing to fix. I’m happy for our veterans, three of them played well and showed character. Our goal is to focus on training. There are things we need to improve, but the worst thing is to look too far into the future. Whether it’s for the player or the coach,” emphasized the Neptunos strategist.
The head coach of “Lietkabel” Nenad Čanak congratulated the opponents after the defeat and promised to help the team get out of the pit.
“Neptune’s Greetings.” We’ve been playing bad basketball and it’s been going on for over a month now. As a coach, I look for solutions. I haven’t found them at the moment. I can promise that I will give all my strength to get the team out of the hole.”
