"It was a very difficult game. The opponent team was well organized and well prepared for the game."
İdman.biz reports that this was said by Davit Chivchivadze, the coach of "Neftchi", who won against "Absheron" (97:93) in the first game of the semi-final stage of the Azerbaijan Basketball League among men.
The specialist stated that while his team was playing their 3rd match, they were already holding their 7th meeting: "We couldn't score 3-pointers in the first half. This affected us on the scoreboard. In the second half, we started scoring 3-pointers and turned the game around. My players did a great job in defense. But our work is not over yet. "Absheron" is a very dangerous team and has already proven it twice. We will prepare better for the return game. I congratulate the entire "Neftchi" family on the victory."
It should be noted that the next match of the rivals will be held on April 29.
