Kalentzu analyzes Estonia
Analyzing Estonia’s way of playing, the partner of Petros Prekas, Dimitra Kalentzou mentioned characteristics.
“As a result, we understand that Estonia is the weakest team in our group. Nevertheless, we must be serious, follow the plan, not lose our minds and have a lot of concentration. It’s a team with young players and I can’t say that anywhere stands out for its game either on the perimeter or inside the basket. It has inexperienced players and for us it is an opportunity to put behind us, a bad appearance with Portugal and to celebrate the qualification through our victory against Estonia. Our opponent does not have a consistent style of play, is prone to pressure and errors and is coming off a heavy defeat. We must, however, pay attention to the match because it may be a team that lost by 55 points to Great Britain, but had beaten them at home».
