The Danish men’s basketball team arrived in Vilnius on Monday, where they will prepare for the next qualifying matches for the European Championship with the Belgian and Lithuanian teams. In the first match, the Danish team beat the Lithuanians 80:76 and arrived in the Lithuanian capital with one goal: to enter the European Championship.
“I think we still have very good memories from the last time. We have excellent relations with Kaunas “Žalgiris” and the Lithuanian Basketball Federation, so it is always a pleasure to be here and our main goal is to create another miracle, “said the national team strategist.
Although the team arrived in Lithuania without its leader Gabriel Lundberg, who scored 28 points in the first game, bounced 7 balls and made 4 assists and was the main blacksmith. According to the Danish strategist, he is happy with the basketball player’s new career stop, but at the same time focuses on those players who are at his disposal.
“I don’t think it is possible to drastically change the team’s strategy in 4 or 5 days. In my opinion, the players must be motivated and emotionally prepared. Everyone understands how important he was to the team, but the players must believe that the team can win without him. Our philosophy is that we focus on the players who came, not those who were able to join the national team.
Of course, everyone in Denmark is happy and proud that a player from Denmark has the opportunity to play for a strong team like CSKA. We thought Gabriel would join the CSKA team in just two weeks, but he had to travel to Moscow first, ”added Erez Bittman, the head coach of the Danish national team.
The duel between the Lithuanian and Danish teams will take place on February 22 at 7:00 p.m. 30 minutes. The game will be broadcast live on TV3 TV.
