Tonight (6:30 p.m.) the National Children’s National Team faces Spain in the first semi-final of the U16 Eurobasket at “Dyo Aorakia” and Alexandros Thomakos does not lose his faith even for the gold.
“We always had in mind an award, even the first place. We know that we have to give our best and if we do that we have no one to fear. Like I think we can beat Spain, but it’s something we’ll have to show on the court. We say we’re better, but if we don’t prove it on the pitch, it’s meaningless“, he emphasized.
He comes off the bench ready to fight for every ball, to help wherever and however he can: “It’s an honor for me to be here, I’m proud to be in this team and I’ll always give my best, I’ll do everything I can to help».
The presence of the technical staff with Yiannis Kalambokis at the helm, Dimitris Misiakos and Katerina Deli is also important for Thomakos:The help we get from all three is limitless. It is also particularly important for us that in addition to being very good at their jobs, they are also three exceptional people who help us significantly».
And if the medal comes… “Well, let him come first and then we’ll see.. One by one the steps».
