Spiro Leka attacks referees: "We deserved to win"

The Victoria Libertas Pesaro fights for 40 minutes on all balls and never gives up: it always stays in contact, overtakes, reacts and plays everything in the final. A frantic final that in the match of the 16th day of Serie A2 Old Wild West at PalaPentassuglia in Brindisi gives the victory to the hosts of Valtur that beat the Pesaro players 68-64. The Apulians join the red-and-whites at the top of the standings with 22 points.

“Congratulations to my guys who were almost perfect in defense,” Spiro Leka said at the end of the game. “Unfortunately, we go out defeated and bitter also because the defeat comes because of some missed refereeing decisions in the last quarter. We come out with our heads held high, we played with an open face”.

“We deserved to win against a team built for promotion. However, such a defeat gives us hope for the future in view of the upcoming battles that await us” added the red and white coach.
