Quotes after the game KK Karpos Sokoli 2000 - KK Kumanovo 2009
KK Kumanovo 2009 recorded a very impressive away win after downing KK Karpos Sokoli 2000 away at the start of the Second Stage. With that victory the road for Kumanovo to qualify for the Second Stage is clear and the team is in a very good position. Here are some quotes after the game was over:
Dragan Nikolic, head coach of KK Karpos Sokoli 2000: "Congratulations to Kumanovo for the win. We need to forget that match as soon as possible as at the moment we don′t have the power to play two quality games in the same week. In the second half we showed some good basketball but that wasn′t enough for the win."
Kendrick Perry, player of KK Karpos Sokoli 2000: "We didn′t play like we know in big part of the game and that′s the main reason for our loss. We were a little bit tired but that′s not an excuse for the way we played."
Marjan Srbinoski, head coach of KK Kumanovo 2009: "A win is a win even when it′s gained after allowing more than 100 points. We opened the game in a great way and we used the fact that our opponent was tired from its previous match. All my players were at their best and that′s the reason for our big lead. May be we could′ve won much easier but the hosts scored some unbelievable triples. This is a very important win for us as our goal is to go to the next stage in the competition."
Danilo Mijatovic, player of KK Kumanovo 2009: "This is a very important win for us as it is a step forward for the semifinal. We knew that Karpos is a strong team with more quality games played so far but we didn′t come to surrender. We wanted to fight for the win and this is what we scored at the end. I think we played very well and we showed that we have quality. At the end we were a bit worried because the hosts tried to come back thanks to some triples by Trajkovski but luckily for us we secured the important win."
