Scariolo: “It is a crucial game, and the reward for winning it would be very significant”
“We are playing in an unusual situation and must be able to overcome the difficult moments where the Palacio usually helps us,” he explained ahead of the game without spectators against Hapoel.
Sergio Scariolo spoke ahead of the Real Madrid-Hapoel Tel Aviv game, corresponding to Round 33 of the EuroLeague, which will take place at the Movistar Arena without spectators (Tuesday, 9:00 pm CEST; Movistar Deportes): “For many reasons, it is a game of tremendous importance. It is an opponent with a roster full of top-level European stars that justifies its position in the standings with its play.”
“For a long time, it has been the best team in the EuroLeague. It is very well-coached and has outstanding players with truly superior talent in many positions on the court.”
Without spectators
“We have to play in a completely unusual situation, and we must be able to find within ourselves the ability to overcome difficult moments, which there will be, probably more than one, where our fans at the Palacio usually help us. We must be patient because we know it will be a long game, but the reward for winning it would also be very significant.”
