| Tuesday, 15 November 2022

Roko Prkacin, Èric Vila and Dusan Miletic have concluded the concentration with their respective selections in the FIBA ​​window. Croatia has played two matches, against Austria and Poland, in the qualification for the next Eurobasket in 2025. Spain and Serbia have also played two matches, in their case, corresponding to the qualification for the next World Cup 2023. The Spanish team has competed against Italy and the Netherlands while the Serbian team has competed against Great Britain and Turkey. 

The first Catalan derby for Básquet Girona, in League competition, arrives on matchday 7 and will be against FC Barcelona at home. In the last precedent, in the Catalan League, Barça won 88-77.

The men coached by Sarunas Jasikevicius arrive at the match in a very good league dynamic: 5 wins and only 1 defeat. Despite starting the championship losing on the track of Gran Canaria, the streak of 5 consecutive winning games has served them to lead the classification.

Básquet Girona, for its part, also reached the compromise by stringing together 2 victories in a row that have taken them out of the relegation zone and turned the dynamics of the beginning of the League upside down. Currently, Aíto García Reneses’ team has a record of 2 wins and 4 losses.

The match will be played this Sunday, November 6, at 5 p.m., at the Palau Blaugrana. It can also be followed by Movistar + dial 59.

Call

Declarations

Aíto García Reneses: ‘It’s a game to go and play the best we can. Then there will be people who will only enjoy if the result is favorable. We have to go to play with the aim of being a little better every day’.

‘I think we trained quite well. We have raised the level of training as well as the level of matches. I don’t attach so much importance to the psychological aspect: we have to do our best knowing that the others are also playing.’
