Olimpia Milano, Ettore Messina dictates the line: “We only think about Brescia.”

Waiting for the cup challenge, the picture on the opponents è already ready.

Ettore Messina frames the qualities of Germani Brescia, his Olimpia Milano’s next opponent in the Coppa Italia. The Lombards had recently challenged each other in the competition already in 2022 in Pesaro (already in the semifinals then) and especially in the 2023 final in Turin.

"We beat them in the championship, but now several months ago and still struggled a lot – Messina said about Brescia – They are a team of great character and with an excellent group organization. We will have to face them thinking only about this game, not about Virtus né about what might happen more in là".

"Brescia’s strengths are its two guards, Della Valle and Ivanovic. Then we must always keep an eye on Bilan, a decisive player who can only be contained by giving everyone their all. Then in recent appointments è grown a lot Burnell, good at turning out to be the extra man at the right time both from 3 and 4", added Messina.

The match between Olimpia Milano and Germani Brescia, valid for the Italian Cup semifinals, will be played in Turin at 6 p.m. Saturday. In the league, as mentioned, this season the's only challenge between the two Lombardy è went to the meneghini, who imposed themselves with a score of 88-85 resisting in the final to the comeback attempt of Peppe Poeta’s boys.
