From mid-January, Vilnius Rytas started winning in the Lithuanian Basketball League (Betsafe-LKL); once again Kėdainiai Nevėžis-Optibet was defeated at home.

Capital Club Strategist Giedrius Žibėnas He was not satisfied both with the team’s performance and with the behavior of Martynas Echod: the tall man in the third half due to disputes with the judges received two technical fouls and was sent to the locker room.

“We made a mistake by thinking too highly of ourselves and what we saw in the first half of the match that Nevėžis dominated, especially in the fight for the ball. Obviously, we were not ready to fight in the first half of the match, already that opponents bounced 16 balls, those numbers come from our standards.

In the second half, we responded to them and reduced the number of balls they recovered in the attack, we controlled it more. In defense we defended what we wanted, but defense is when you pick up the ball. We force them to take a lot of awkward shots, but whatever it is, we don’t take the ball from them.

We were too excited in the third half, we can’t afford that. We started a game, too many disputes with the referees and we have to overcome it. We got into trouble ourselves and got bitten to play until the last minute.

Such moments will be: misunderstandings by the judges, controversial whistles. Players who are one of the team leaders and candidates for the national team cannot afford it. We have to be much more solid and that is unjustifiable, as Martynas Echodas played ”, G. Žibėnas summed up the match and reviewed the situation of M. Echodas.
