Chus Mateo: “Zalgiris play with a lot of energy at home”
“It's very difficult to win in front of their home fans, but we’re in good form,” added Musa.
Chus Mateo and Džanan Musa spoke to Realmadrid TV the day before the game against Kaunas, on matchday 20 of the EuroLeague (Friday, 7.30 pm CET). The Madrid coach had this to say: “Zalgiris are a team that play with a lot of energy at home, they are defending really well, they rebound well and they're capable of beating anyone. We have to deliver a very complete performance throughout the 40 minutes, without slipping out of the game, as we know that they have players with a lot of quality and a strong and very complete bench.”
Musa: “It's very difficult to win in front of their home fans”
“Zalgiris are a very aggressive team in their approach and it's very difficult to win in front of their home fans. They're playing very well, but we're in good form and I think if we close down the defensive rebounding and move and defend well we have a chance to win.”
