THE Slovenia completed her preparation for tomorrow (6/7, 5:30 p.m.) with training at noon on Friday semi-final with Greece for the Pre-Olympic Tournament in SEF. THE Alexander Sekulichwhich also saw Alexei Nikolic training normally, overcoming the muscle problem that kept him out with New Zealand, made the Greek team the favorite.
“We are facing the hosts, in a packed stadium and we know that they are the favorite of the tournament, not only of the match. It is up to us to try to stop them and attack them“, said the coach of Slovenia. “We don’t have much time to prepare, but I think it will be an interesting game. If you want to go to the Olympics, you have to do 2/2. If you want to face the best teams in the Olympics, you have to beat Greece and then in the final”he added.
For his showdown Giannis Antetokounmpo by Luka Doncicwhich fatally draws all eyes, said: “It is the first time they will face each other in a game with their national teams. Slovenia is not just Doncic, even though he is our leader, while Greece is not just Giannis either, because they have a fantastic roster. The game is Greece-Slovenia, not Giannis vs. Lukas. There’s just a superstar on each side».
Finally, he extolled the virtues of the Greek team, saying:He has size, talent and experience. Calathes is one of the best passers in Europe, he can read the defense and he is also a good defender. There are many other good players on the Greek roster. That’s why I say that Greece is the favorite. Not because they play at home, but because they are a really, really good team».
