We also had a free throw to win, we played a good match for a large part of the game. We were disturbed when Split lowered the five "This was a difficult game, there was a defeat, but there are also positives. We are a young team and we have to keep working, so even these games that we lose in the end will come to our side," said the coach of SC Derbi, Petar. Mijović.

I'm happy because of the victory", said the coach of Split, Slaven Rimac.
