Chus Mateo: “We're making steps in the right direction”

Chus Mateo and Facundo Campazzo gave their thoughts on Real Madrid‘s win over Bàsquet Girona at the WiZink Center. The coach spoke about the fourth match of the league campaign: “We're making steps in the right direction. We'll work on every game, but what's important to me is that we understand how things are developing, that we're solid at the back”.
“The rhythm of the game is helping us to have a better understanding of the mechanisms we want to apply. We were good at the back and that's something that worried me a bit because we were conceding too much. Campazzo and Tavares' combination was good today, but when it wasn't, it was Llull and Deck, Musa and Hezonja, etc. We're going to continue working to find connections between everyone so that it's the team that wins and not the individuals”.
Campazzo: "I'm feeling very confident"
“I'm feeling very confident. My teammates fill me with a lot of confidence and I'm in good shape physically. I use my energy trying to help the team to win, defending hard and setting the right play. Offensively this team is very powerful, anyone can score and we have to make the most of that”.
Connection with Tavares
“We've been playing together for a lot of years. The opposition also knows how to defend against us and we have to find a way to adapt to that and continue to improve. He draws a lot of attention and it's important to find the open shooters. Llull and Rathan-Mayes can play point guard as well. I give my all in the minutes I get and there's a lot of faith in those behind me because they can play even better”.
