"Now we have more possibilities to qualify for the final four and we have time to rest a bit and to prepare for the next match, using this ball that is causing us some problems. We have imposed our rhythm and I am confident about the next fight”.

We played well only in the first set, we tried to apply what we had prepared but then we made too many mistakes and it seemed that we were afraid of playing against TRENTINO that showed a great performance. I hope we will have another chance at home, but it will be very hard,” said the head coach of Asseco Resovia Ljubomir Travica. The second match of the Playoffs 6 is scheduled for next Tuesday at 6 pm in Rzeszow.
