Trento, Lele Molin chase first EuroCup success

Lele Molin’s words on the eve of the EuroCup match

After the convincing external success with Reyer Venezia, Dolomiti Energia Trentino on the wake of enthusiasm wants to repeat itself also against Gran Canaria in the sixth day of Group B, scheduled for Wednesday, November 30, at 8 p.m. The bianconeri have yet to win a game in the Eurocup and want to get unblocked. The Spanish club, on the other hand, has a record of 4 wins and 1 loss so far and is leading Group B, along with Promitheas and Turk Telekom.

The coach of the bianconeri Lele Molin spoke thus on the eve of the challenge: “This round for us again has only one meaning: it is another opportunity to win, achieve the first victory in the tournament. We are aware that we are facing an opponent built to go far, maybe the best team in EuroCup ever, but we will take the court to really try. We feel we can do it. Saturday’s result against Venice gives us the confidence and enthusiasm to try: it’s an important step in our season, a season in which we have to necessarily have a good contribution from all the players on the roster to give us a chance to be competitive against everyone. Flaccadori? Yesterday and today he trained regularly with the team, he will be in the game. He’s had a lot of bad luck re-injuring his own bad foot after his injury in Verona. Against Gran Canaria, in addition to limiting fumbles and finding good shooting percentages, we must succeed at all costs in limiting, with energy and quality, their bubbly, high tempo game. Gran Canaria has a lot of weapons, but also a few small flaws: we will have to be good at taking advantage of their every slightest lapse.”
