Dusko Ivanovic honors Virtus Bologna

Dusko Ivanovic compliments Virtus

On the sidelines of Virtus Bologna’s success against the Red Star (85-79 the final result at the Segafredo Arena), the coach of the Belgrade club, Dusko Ivanovic, took it upon himself to congratulate the evening’s opponents, who were able to withstand the comeback attempt in the final by Napier and his teammates.

"I have to congratulate Virtus,” said the Red Star coach in the press conference. “We in the first half suffered so much from ineffectiveness from three points, this è what made the difference. In the second half we struggled, I have nothing to reproach my team".

Ivanovic, born in 1957, è one of the most experienced coaches in the Euroleague. He has been coaching Red Star since November 2022, when he took over from Vladimir Jovanovic. The Red and White, last season, came close to making the playoffs, which they missed precisely because of their lackluster start.
