Rubén Burgos pre J23 LF Endesa vs Movistar Estudiantes quotes

24/02/2023

Valencia Basket is on the road again this week to visit Movistar Estudiantes in Madrid. After a tough defeat against Fenerbahce, Rubén Burgos says that "for our team to be able to beat Fenerbahce, you can have one option during the season, two is complicated. We did it last year against Ekaterinburg where we managed to pull off that surprise in 40 minutes, but surely if the tie had been a round-robin it would have been more complicated to be champions. This does not imply that there were things we could have done better during the 40 minutes in basic aspects of the game that will be essential to have a chance of winning on the students' court, given that this is a team that always competes at 100 per cent. They have a lively, very dynamic game and we will have to be very focused on stopping their individuals led by Gretter, but they have a very good game without the ball, fast. We'll have to be very good on both sides of the pitch, because they've always made it very difficult for us".
