Quotes after SCM U Craiova - KK Kozuv

SCM U Craiova defeated KK Kozuv by 11 points at home and recorded an important win in EUROHOLD Balkan League. On the other side it was the 6th straight loss for the team from Macedonia which keeps them outside of the Top 6. Here are some quotes after the end of the game:   Milan Nisic, head coach of SCM U Craiova: "I want to congratulate my players because they forgot the loss in the local championship and played a good game. We controlled the offensive rebounds and the transition game. I expected Kozuv to play better because they are a good team but it was difficult for them after 11 hour of traveling. We lost focus in some moments of the game but still managed the win."   Mirko Kovac, player of SCM U Craiova: "It was very important game for us. This win is very important especially after our loss to Teodo and to still have a chance to qualify for the next round. We knew how they play and we knew that if we played hard defense, at the end of the game the win would be for us and that happened. Thanks to everybody - my teammates, the coach and the fans, we won together that game."   Marjan Srbinovski, head coach of KK Kozuv: "We started bad the game. We had two tough games in the National cup before we came here. Craiova played very well, they had a good shooting night - especially Kovac and Seals. Big reason for our loss is they hade 25 more rebounds than us. I cannot understand that as a coach. 25 additional attacks are just too much. Congratulations to Craiova and I wish them to play in the Final 4."   Dimitar Karadzovski, player of KK Kozuv: "We lost the game because of the rebounds. They had 25 more than us so it was normal. Our problem was the rebounding."
