There is a need for victory, that at the moment there are no emotions“, Stressed the coach of the” clover “.
«In every match everything is give and take. Whatever it gives to every game, you should expect something similar. What we need to do is act conscientiously and responsibly on what we represent and what is fair to our roster. Good, bad, mediocre. To play according to our abilities without deviations. There are excuses that could be listed, but at this stage there is no reason. About time, budget and everything that can affect our team at this time“, He added.

They have athletic and physical players. There are some keys to adapting and managing. Two or three players who score the most and that is where we need to focus. In general, it is a team that wants to run in the open field and especially in the first 6 to 8 seconds we should be very focused. And they are very good in the offensive rebound, where we have to show consistency».
