"The series is not over yet."
Idman.biz reports that this was stated by Daniel Nolson, the head coach of "Anorthosis", after the 73:89 defeat against "Absheron Lions" in Baku.
He congratulated his opponent on the victory and emphasized that the Azerbaijani team performed strongly in defense, and also stated that his team would try to win on their home court.
"We wanted to make a comeback and were playing well at the end, but we lost. But this match is not decided by one game. There is a return match ahead and we will do everything to win," the coach said.
Rafael Eleftheriou, a basketball player of the Cypriot club, added that the team is still forming and has not reached its full potential: "The difference in score is 16 points, but everything will be decided in Limassol. We have not lost hope and will fight to the end. We congratulate "Absheron Lions" on their success."
