Maccabi head coach Ioannis Sfairopoulos was furious after the defeat, but not at the players but at the fact that the fans do not support the teams when they lose.
Maccabi from Tel Aviv was defeated by Unix (74:85), thus suffering the fourth consecutive defeat, ie the seventh in the Euroleague.
The dissatisfaction of the fans was present this time as well, to the extent that the Greek expert received messages that he should resign.
“Fans should support us even when we play badly. I don’t understand the reaction and I don’t like that kind of behavior. We are Maccabi, we are happy only when we win. Other teams don’t lose games? When your child fails at something, do you beat him? When we beat Barcelona, everyone was happy and supported us, but the team needs fans more when they have a bad run. Such behavior hurts us, it affects the team. If the fans want to continue like that, that is their right. “I will continue to give my maximum,” said Sfairopoulos.
Maccabi is currently eighth on the table with seven wins and seven defeats.
