Bayern improved to 15-9 in Euroleague

Bayern Munich coach Andrea Trinchieri talks after the comeback win over ALBA Berlin.


“There are some games that can kill you or can give you a huge boost. We were trailing, they were better for 35 minutes. They had more energy, we were heavy, we were unable to put any pressure. Then we condensed our best effort for the last five minutes of the game and the five minutes of overtime. We came back, we made some big plays, we had some stops and this is a game that can really lift us. Today I chose for whatever reason to run a shorter rotation and that helped some players to have more touches and more opportunities to score, but we win and we lose as a team always."


"We won the second, third and fourth quarters and overtime. The first quarter cost us a lot. We didn’t have the energy to play. But you can see the difference with one more day of rest. We played less than 48 hours ago and we were able to condense our best effort in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime where we made a lot of good plays on defense, big plays on offense and we were able to win a very important and very, very tough game against a very good opponent that shot the ball very well. We had to do really hard work to get back and win the game."


The German team is paired with Real Madrid in fourth place in the Euroleague standings with 15 wins in 24 games.
