THE Panathinaikos he has a long night ahead of him. Certainly the most critical of the season so far, as it welcomes the Maccabi in the OAKA for the 5th and decisive match in the Euroleague playoffs. The facts are simple, the winner will get their ticket to the Final 4 Berlin.
The tickets of the decisive match, (the jamball is set for the 21:15 with telecast from NovaSports Prime) were sold out within a few hours on Great Fridaywith Ergin Ataman and his players aiming to finish what they started in Belgrade, where they found their backs against the wall but bounced back with the victory that gave them the right to play… their spare change in the packed OAKA for qualification .
“It’s a very good series against Maccabi. Now we have home advantage again after the big win in Belgrade. We won a lot of big matches this season in OAKA, against a lot of big teams and Maccabi is also a very big team and we have to play at 100% to win the game.” said about tonight’s match Ergin Ataman.
“We want to be competitive and claim victory. In OAKA there will be a very hot atmosphere, but we have already won twice there and I believe we can do a third. We should be focused and cool and stay united. We are proud of what we have achieved so far and we will go with faith to play our basketball.” the Maccabi coach noted for his part, Odette Katas.
