Mantas Kuklys, Vice Captain of Žalgiris:

“The result is not bad, our sports form is improving. We had very good preparation for the season, but the coronavirus shuffled our cards a lot. After the virus, the team had a hard time recovering. The team break gave us some time, so we felt ready. The showdown with Panevėžys, who is waiting for the weekend, will be a serious test: the competitors had no similar problems and started the season as if they were on their wings. The opponent is good. I think at the moment all the Lithuanian teams are showing good form, one of them is Panevėžys. They scored nine points, they see a clear line and what the coach wants from the team. They show a great game, but it will be a match: whoever wants more will find more weaknesses in their opponent and will win. “
