We will continue our campaign in Euroleague on Thursday from 6 pm agaoonst Girona, who have three wins just like we do, so it would be very important to take revenge for our defeat in October.
The unfortunate game in Spain is a hurtful memory for us, in which we found ourselves facing an aggressive, rock solid Girona. We reacted badly to that many times, and also when it was a tie game in the 17th minute Briann also left the game due to an injury, and later on Jeca also bruised her side when falling. We had our strength anyway, and in crunch time we came back down to 6 points from being down by fifteen earlier. That was important because if we win by a bigger margin on Thursday, we would be better on aggregate in the end in this balanced unpredictable group. But first of all let's get that win, which will be a very difficult task, too!
Both teams' rosters have changed in comparison tho the game in Spain. On our side Candice came back, while at the other end world class player Sonja Petrovic has recovered after her surgery, and during the holidays they brought home ooutstanding Spanish national team point guard Marta Xargay. However, American Brittney Sykes has left to Turkish side Cukurova.
In the last games, both teams had worse periods. That hurt them more in their first showing in January, since we have suffered a calculated loss on the road against Fenerbahce, and they fell short to Lyon in Girona in a huge battle.
Our preparation for the game was made more difficult by the absence of Dalma Czukor who is struggling with her Achilles, and Virág Weninger who has a high fever that has prevented her from practicing. Stevan Karadzic stodd in front of our cameras before the game.
Because of the SuperCup game on Tuesday our next home game will take place at an unusual time, on Friday from 6 pm, in which we host BKG PRIMA NATURA Szigetszentmiklós
A jövő keddi Szuper Kupa mérkőzés miatt szokatlan időpontban, pénteken 18 órakor kerül sor a következő hazai bajnoki mérkőzésünkre, melyen a BKG PRIMA NATURA Szigetszentmiklóst fogadjuk
The board of our club has great experience in managing difficulties, but we are facing an especially huge challenge in terms of functioning due to the energy crisis, as well as on a professional level, since Courtney Vandersloot is for now unable to join our team due to personal reasons
Klubunk vezetésének nagy tapasztalata van már a nehézségek menedzselése terén, de most különösen nagy kihívások elé nézünk a működés tekintetében az energia-válság miatt, illetve szakmai vonalon is, miután személyes okok miatt Vandersloot Courtney egyelőre nem tud csatlakozni a keretünkhöz
