Žalgiris strategist after the game Martin Schiller He was satisfied with both the victory and the game display and shed light on the situation for Marius Grigonis, who went home during the long break.
“Congratulations to our guys for the win, especially when done in this style. We were very focused on defense, especially in the first half. After a long break, we were not so focused, but that was corrected by the players on the bench. Marius Grigonis is ill, in such a situation we decided to send him home. He always showed the desire to play, he played in the first half and did well. He simply has a cold, his COVID-19 test was negative, so it is not related, we just sent him to rest, “said the strategist.
– What was the main objective of this match, after a long week in Russia?
– The main objective was victory. Another objective is to continue the work started and develop good offensive and defensive habits.
– Are there updates on the situations of Patricio Garino and Steve Vasturia?
– Both advance in small steps and little by little they begin to train on the parquet. Steve is moving a bit faster than Patrick, but we can’t say yet exactly when they will return to team training and be able to compete again.
– Karolis Lukošiūnas scored eleven points, how do you rate his performance?
– I liked him, he was focused on defense, before the long break he beat the opponents four times, he was very active. It is important that you make good use of the minutes you receive, as you defend yourself perfectly against people without the ball and can do more than just hit. He runs well, he can create situations for shots and he plays well, so while reading the game he also gets his shots because he is a great sniper.
