Quotes Bulgaria vs. Belgium

26.08.2010

Belgium Head Caoch Eddy Casteels:
"I didn't see a game, I saw only fighting. I really respect very much men like Videnov and Stoykov. We play every year in Bulgaria last three years, and I respect this. It was an ugly game, and everybody saw it. It was not basketball, but streetball. I respect a lot my players. I respect warriors too, such is the case with the Ivanov brothers. They always have been winners. Now the situation in our group is very complicated. We knew that we always have to win at home. Poland is very strong team, like Bulgaria. But we will do our best to win and qualify on the floor."

Bulgaria Player Asen Velikov:
"It was really hard. We are very happy that we won and we saved our chances to qualify. We will be more confident now before the game in Georgia. We can win there."

Bulgaria Head Coach Rosen Barchovski:
"It was a very nervous game. We lost unfortunately in Poland and our chances were not so good. The incident wasn't good for us, because we won emotions, but we lost quality - we lost Deyan, who started the game very well, we lost Varbanov, who is very tall and we need him. I am proud with everybody, but I should mention the young players. It is not the first time, that Velikov, Ivan Lilov and Alexander Georgiev played very well for us, but, today they played very well. I am sad, we could win with bigger difference. Now we have to get ready for Georgia.
