Campazzo: "The Super Cup is a good test for this new group"
"We're going to play this tournament as if it were the Copa del Rey or a playoff. This year will be no exception. We're going to go for that semi-final", said the Madrid point guard.
Campazzo spoke on Realmadrid TV the day before the Endesa Super Cup 2025 semi-final game, which our team will play against La Laguna Tenerife at the Martín Carpena in Málaga (Saturday, 9:00 pm CEST): "It's always very motivating to start the season with a title just two games away from winning it. That is our first objective in the short term. Facing a team like Tenerife means you need a perfect game to be able to get the win. It's one game, so anything can happen, and that's what keeps you intense, motivated and active. It's a good test for this new group."
"Preparation goes a long way. I think putting in all the energy and getting ready for the first game is very important. Maybe a lot of teams take this to start tuning up, but we want to get to the first game well. With a solid team, we are ready to try to win the semi-final. I think that's why we always take advantage of it, because we play this tournament as if it were the Copa del Rey or a playoff. This year will be no exception. We're going to go for that semi-final."
Captain Llull
"We are in Sergio Llull's 20th season, and having players like him makes those of us who have been here for a few years or those who are new to the team see him and say: "This is the way.” Having that card up our sleeve is very important for us because it is contagious and leads us perfectly. All of us together make this team competitive."
Team feelings
"We're doing very well. I really like the way we're working, the intensity with which we are working. It's getting very close to what we're going to face in the game. There are new signings who are adapting, but are very open and very curious to be part of this team and to know what it means to wear the Real Madrid crest. It's going to be a year of many challenges, but we're preparing very well."
"It's a very competitive team. I think it's the same every year. Always aiming for all the titles. And it's also a strong team, with a lot of talent in all positions." Offensively and defensively, we can be very good. We just have to work hard and get to know each other better. We have to work and not think about the finals or the end of the road, but start working now, which is when you prepare for those games. It is extremely important. However, we have a coach and a coaching staff that give us all the tools to make it happen. We have to use them and apply them to the game as best we can."
