Anadolu Efes Assistant Coach Yakup Onaykök said in a statement after the 95-93 defeat in Barcelona, ”We fought both defensively and offensively throughout the match, but it didn’t happen.”
Anadolu Efes was defeated by Barcelona in the 13th week of Turkish Airlines EuroLeague at Sinan Erdem Sports Hall with a score of 95-93 in extra time. Assistant Coach Yakup Eightkök attended the press conference held after the match due to the dismissal of Head Coach Ergin Ataman.
Stating that they had a bad loss tonight, Eightkök said, “We went on the field to win. We were fine in the first half. Our opponent’s substitution defense in the second half broke our rhythm. Sertaç’s 3 points from the top continued to disrupt our game order. We took the match to overtime, but after the technical fouls,” Sertaç said. “Our rhythm broke down once again. We fought both defensively and offensively throughout the match, but it didn’t happen,” he said. (UAV)
