They have great players with a lot of energy on both sides of the court: to limit them therefore, first we will have to control our possessions and make the most of our opportunities. Having excellent spacing, controlling the ball and reducing the number of lost balls will be crucial. We will have to be efficient in and out of the area, in every situation where players will be involved in defensive rebounding, and we will have to take all the shots that will be given to us because with their energy and aggressiveness, they will not give us so many second chances within the same action, and this can be one of the keys to the game, being ready to take shots.”

Monaco is definitely a very physical and energetic team that plays very well, especially at home, but we have shown that we can beat any team so we will do everything to get the win.”
