Oliver Popovic: "We lost focus when we needed to play with composure"

Zenit-2 head coach Oliver Popovic commented on the result of the fifth game of the Fonbet Super League quarterfinal series against Temp-SUMZ. The blue-whites team lost away with a score of 86:77 and will now compete for the bronze medals.

— The fifth game showed that the more experienced team is Temp. In fact, the third quarter determined the outcome of today's game, so congratulations to the opponent on their victory. It turned out that the teams that finished first and second in the regular season will play in the final. Maybe that's fair.

Yes, we had a chance, but apparently, we lack concentration for all 40 minutes. There were a lot of offensive rebounds for Revda today — I think about 18 — and from those second chances, they scored a lot of points. We just lost focus when we needed to play with composure. So, they won — congratulations and good luck in the final.
