"Virtus Bologna arrives at the right time." This is how coach Nenad Markovic began his presentation of Sunday's match between Dinamo Sassari and the vice-leaders.
The reference is to the expectations of further growth of the team: «We have a Euroleague challenge ahead of us, a test to understand what we can do, these are the games that are needed to understand if we can take a step forward, if we want to do something important we also have to beat a big team, against Milan and Brescia we lost without competing, with Tortona we played it».
Bologna will not be very fresh: on Tuesday they played and lost on the field of Real Madrid, tonight they host Panathinaikos . «It is normal that we will have to look for even more counterattacks and transitions, to have easy shots and not suffer their greater physicality, but above all we must learn to be consistent in attack and defense».
