Šarūnas Jasikevičius won the first title with Barcelona as head coach. After winning the Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid, the Lithuanian did not hide his joy, but remembered that this is only the beginning.
“It is always better to win than to lose and yes, it was a very good victory. We have to enjoy this week, but nothing ends with this victory. We will have to go back to a routine that will include Euroleague matches as well as continuous learning and improvement, ”said Shar.
“We all have to work and sacrifice, because only we can all win together. It’s not tennis or golf, it’s basketball here and we need each other. I don’t believe in big changes of level between teams like Barcelona and Real, because it is always necessary to prove it, ”continued Jasikevičius.
The specialist from Lithuania was also satisfied with the performance of his students in the final.
“I am very happy with this title. We were very good in the final for the first 20 minutes and then we held on. In the second part of the game we did not play with very good concentration, but my men are not robots, and “Real” is not a poor team, “said the Lithuanian.
Jasikevičius also pointed out that he might feel tired in the final, as Barça played three games in three days, when Real had a day off.
Already on Thursday, Lithuanian students will host Kaunas “Žalgiris”, who also won the cup competition, in the Euroleague match.
