Kamberidis: “At the National Team there is unity, high motivation and a desire to do the best possible”

In the image of our National team in the friendlies with USA and Germanybut also in the mood that exists for the best possible in the World Cup was the partner of Dimitris Itoudis, Savvas Kamperidis.

“With the data that existed in the team from the beginning, the absences that we knew and those that arose, the main question was the degree of commitment to the defense, the toughness that we must show and how we can reap this in the attack. The team in general showed a good face defensively in the friendlies, but there are definitely elements that we need to improve because we tried different defenses, both in the half court and in the whole court. The friendlies we gave were very useful, there were moments that showed weaknesses, we are studying them and now we will have three strong training sessions in Manila, which will be very important to correct some things, defensively and offensively, so that we can be ready for the first game“, he said, initially and continued for his start World Cup.

“The coach tries to give an indication of what we will face, so that the team has the greatest possible degree of commitment. Until now we had not gone into details about the opponents in the first phase, since we were focusing on the friendlies ahead of us. From now on, in the remaining days the team will focus on the opponents of the first phase. It’s a given that we have two games that are difficult but within our reach, the ones against Jordan and New Zealand, plus the game against the USA, in which we will have to be competitive and use it to present the best possible image to the remaining games to follow. There is moderate optimism in the team because we believe that there is a large degree of like-mindedness, high motivation and mood from everyone for work and the best possible“, were his words Savva Kamperidis.
