Konstantin Papazov: We have one goal - to win the league

BC Levski Lukoil is through to the Final Four after beating SK Tirana for second time. Here is what head coach Konstantin Papazov had to say after the game was over: 

 

"I′m happy. After the win in Tirana and the good game against Beroe on Monday, it was hard to have the necessary focus in this match especially after we defeated the same time by 53 points two months ago. In Tirana we had a shorter roster and managed to turn around the score from minus 12 to plus 9 which also had its effect. 


Our players know their potential really well. I wanted to start with players who receive less time on the court because they would′ve been more motivated. They started bad but then managed to tie the score. Our opponent definitely has potential but lacks a good physical preparation. As long as they are fresh are really unpleasant and uncomfortable team to play against.


Next week in the Final Four first we need to overcome a really serious opponent in Blokotehna. They are a team with potential who had a convincing win against us in January. First I want us to qualify for the final and I hope that we′ll be fresher than whoever our opponent will be. The hosts Rilski are playing really well and they have the ambition to win again after the first season of the league. However we have just one goal - to win the competition. It won′t be easy. Rilski has the psychological advantage over us but let′s first reach the final."
