The Women’s National Team’s two matches in the third and final window of June’s EuroBasket qualifiers are away to Portugal and Estonia with team captain Katerina Sotiriou giving the cue
“What we want is to complete our obligations and seal another participation in EuroBasket which will be a great success“, stressed the Panathinaikos forward on the EEC website.
The National team is first and undefeated in the 7th Group with the most experienced player of the team referring to the motivation of the team. “Winning is always the motivation and always if for some reason we don’t find a motivation we have to create it. This is forced on us by the championship and also by ourselves who have learned to be winners. At this stage we have determined our steps which are, wins, qualification, first place and best ranking».
Speaking about the first rival of the national team, Portugal, he said: “We have before us two difficult games with a long journey and opponents with a different basketball philosophy than ours. Portugal, which is also our first opponent, is a team that plays very hard and anarchic basketball, something we also saw in Xanthi. So we have to adapt accordingly because many times they take you out of what you want to do on the field».
