Heart Attack Win: Helios Gora Overcomes Zmaji in Ljubljana
Helios Gora secured a decisive 92-86 victory over Zmaji Ljubljana following the conclusion of the game. Following a closely contested first game in Belgrade, Gora established a clear advantage in Ljubljana, leading by two points in the initial quarter. A strong start to the second quarter, culminating in a 10-0 run, extended their lead to 21 points.
“We knew that we couldn’t play the entire game so badly. We believed that we would establish our rhythm in defense,” stated Alexei Nikolić after the win. The initial dominance appeared to signal Gora’s intention to advance to the semifinals.
However, Gora experienced a period of difficulty after making some mistakes, allowing Zmaji to quickly regain a lead through successful attacks. Despite this setback, the team maintained their composure and ultimately secured the victory. “We still believed.
We held together and in the end we came to the victory,” Nikolić continued. With this win, Helios Gora now has the opportunity to continue their progress in the tournament.
