Kaunas “Žalgiris” (7-1) barely broke out in the Betsafe-LKL championship match against Prienai “CBet” (4-6), which broke in extra time (103: 100), and after the match the coach in Chief Martin Schiller had reproaches to his students.

After a duel in the dressing room, Austras yelled at his students, which explained the performance of the opponents.

“You watched the game yourself,” Schiller asked when asked why he was yelling in the locker room after the game. “We are not satisfied with the performance of our competitors.”

Speaking of defense issues, Schiller highlighted aspects of the game that allowed the Prienai Club to score 100 points.

“First of all, I want to congratulate the Prienai team with a really good match. In the first part of the match we did not stop the opponents’ fast attack on defense, and after the break we made mistakes when the opponents played 1 on 1”, said the helmsman of the Žalgiris.

Schiller, who did not comment much on the start of the team’s players, said he expected serious fights Sunday night.

“We were expecting a serious fight, because the situation is difficult – there is a game waiting on Tuesday and Friday, and a week ago we played the same opponent.” All these aspects led to a difficult fight, ”said the Austrian.

Žalgiris will host CSKA in Moscow at home on Tuesday, and the local AX Armani Exchange will fight in Milan on Friday.
