Real Madrid's basketball team celebrated a 105-90 win in the second semifinal of the EuroLeague Finals in Athens, setting a spectacular showdown with Olympiacos in the final.

Mario Hezonja, after a significant victory over Valencia, was modest about the team's placement in the battle for the European title.

Mario Hezonja's Post-Match Comments

"We must thank the coach for the way we prepared. Just as we haven't done anything special by reaching the semifinals, we haven't accomplished anything now. We must continue to believe and strive," Hezonja said.

Due to numerous roster issues, Hezonja had to cover multiple positions during the game.

"Yes, we have to do it. We have no other choice," he added.

The Atmosphere in Athens

A notable aspect was the atmosphere in the arena, where a significant number of fans were dressed in red to support Olympiacos.

"It's truly unusual. This never happens during the regular season. But this is the EuroLeague Finals, anything can happen," Hezonja commented.

At the end, the Croatian player sent a clear message before the trophy battle.

"We must believe and give more than we did tonight."
