It will be an atypical week for UCAM Murcia CB, as it is the day in which it is time to rest in Group C of the Eurocup.
José Ángel Antelo, captain of the team, believes that "it's good, because in the end, with so much travel and matches, you have practically no time to work the team.
There is fatigue in between, and this week we can work on defense, attack, and improve ".
The college students are not being effective away from home in the League Endesa.
"Playing two competitions is a new situation for us.
We have won top-level teams in the Eurocup, but in the Endesa League we have two spots in our league.
You have to make a new account.
The team has heart, character and talent to be up ", explained the Galician player.
The UCAM Murcia CB fell to the Morabanc Andorra, in a game in which it was always behind.
"We did not do well in the first quarter and we still got the hardest: to come back.
However, we returned to leave the party.
Do not lose perspective.
Last year they also gave up for dead and in the end, we were not.
This year, either, "said Antelo, who recalled that the Endesa League" is a race, not a sprint, and that's what we have to think about. "
Now, the Murcia receive one of the best teams in the competition, FC Barcelona Lassa, which comes from winning with solvency to Real Madrid Basketball.
"To face them is always difficult, and the other day they played very well .. Even though they are missing a player, we have to make the best possible game, have a right face to the ring and they are not comfortable", admitted the captain academic.
The match against FC Barcelona Lassa will be played next Saturday, November 12, at 6.30 pm, and will be re-broadcast by Movistar + (Dial 55).
