BATE's head coach, Aleksejus Baga, after the historic victory against London's "Arsenal," expressed his joy in colorful words.
He called the BATE win a miracle.
"Let no offense to the women present here, but it was better than sex," - the Belarusian coach's words after the match with the "Gunners" are quoted by the official UEFA website.
The only and winning goal for BATE was scored by Stanislavas Dragunas in the 45th minute.
Almost a decade ago, a similar phrase was first said by basketball specialist Rimas Kurtinaitis.
In May 2009, following the victory in the Lithuanian Basketball League (LKL) final series, the head coach of Vilnius' "Lietuvos rytas" team, Rimas Kurtinaitis, sought to console his opponent, Gintaras Krapikas.
"As one of my friends likes to say: basketball is not sex - it won't be good for both," - joked the "Lietuvos rytas" strategist R. Kurtinaitis.
