Llull: “The EuroLeague is very demanding, but the responsibility is to finish at the top”
“We have a tough game in Munich and we want to get off to a good start,” said the captain.
Sergio Llull spoke on Realmadrid TV ahead of Madrid’s opener in the EuroLeague. Chus Mateo’s side visit Bayern Munich this Thursday (8.45 pm CEST): “It's the most important competition, we will be playing against the best teams in Europe. The team is really looking forward to the EuroLeague. Last year, we came within a whisker of winning the trophy and we're going to fight to achieve our goals.”
“It's going to be a tough and demanding competition, but when you put on this shirt the responsibility is to try to finish on top. We start with a difficult game, the atmosphere in Munich is great. We're going to try to play better than them and get that first win to get off to a good start.”
Identity hallmarks
“The same as always. The character, the desire to perform well, to work on all aspects of the game to have a great season. The objective is to be in the Final Four and try to win it.”
“It's a long and demanding season and we're going to try to reach the decisive part of the season in good shape. Every game is important but what matters most is to reach February and May well, which is when the trophies will be decided.”
