5th game : Bulgaria (3-2) 88 - 73 Ukraina (0-5)
The word of the MVP : Kiril Yochev (23pts at 47% 8reb 1ast)
"That's my third season in this team and I felt it was my time to shine ! You know, our big men tend to believe they are our best weapons but I had to show them our outside perimeter also knows how to play the ball ! I'm kiding, I love this guys and I'm impressed by their hard work. Most of them are only 20 years old... They'll crush their adversaries next season !
There's not much to tell about this game, we knew Ukraina would be ultra motivated but we were well prepared and in great shape. I think it was our best defensive game.
Next weeks, we'll have no choice but to win. We already know qualification will be hard to get but our job is to play our best, no matter how little our chances are !
Българи юнаци !"
