THE Dennis Schroeder almost became fatal for her Germany having 4/26 shooting, 4 turnovers and a lot of bad choices on quarter-final with Latvia (81-79) for the World Cup.
“I have no doubt that Dennis will react. He obviously had a rough day, with missed shots and layups, but he’s a very tough kid and I have no doubt he’ll get back to his good self. Difficulties are what make you better. One of the virtues of this team is that we are a whole, we can count on twelve players if needed. Franz Wagner took us on his back in the fourth period, but everyone who was called on helped“, emphasized the team’s coach, Gordon Herbert.
“Congratulations to Latvia. They are a great team, not many were talking about before the World Cup. We won, but it wasn’t pretty. Our bench for the third or fourth game in a row was fantastic. We have to improve a lot for the game against USA, both defensively and offensively. Just ten assists was probably our biggest problem today“, he added.
In terms of players, Johannes Tiemann he said: “We are very happy to be in the top four. We didn’t play a perfect game, but we found the solutions and won. It is very important for us that we have successes. Last year we unfortunately lost in the semi-final, but this year we want to make it».
