Bartzokas highly criticized the referees in the post-game interview.

"I don't know what happened in the 4th quarter. We had bad decisions, but I have to see the 4th quarter again. Every call from the referees was against us, every doubtful call was against us," Bartzokas said.

"I cannot criticize the referees, of course. They are doing their job, we're doing our job. We had bad decisions in the 4th quarter, but it's really strange what happened."

Virtus won the fourth quarter by 10 points (22-12), while their first lead came with just under three minutes remaining (67-65).

With 11 wins and 4 losses, Virtus are currently second in the EuroLeague standings, while Olympiacos are in 12th place with 7 wins and 8 losses.
