“We feel deep disappointment. We gave everything and showed character” says Aleksandar Atanasijević after match against Resovia. “In the tie-break we also fought bravely but unfortunately we lost. The match referees made a lot of mistakes against us, and in the tie-break is known that even one ball can make the difference on the outcome of the match. I do not know why judges behave so”.
Decisions of the judges were crucial to the outcome of the meeting?
“The action of the tie-break was very important. For us the judges’ decision was unbelievable”.
Your play in this last game, and the whole quarterfinals was really great.
“Now we feel great sadness primarily because there’s nothing we can do, and we were knocked out of competition for the Polish championship. Our disappointment is all the greater because we were really close to turn the tide of the quarter-finals. We were able to get back into the game despite the result 0-2 in matches and 0-2 in sets in the duel No. 3. We showed real strength of character, certainly we feel great sadness and disappointment but life goes on”.
