.
A few days before the debut in the Final Eight of the Italian Cup against GeVi Napoli, Germani Brescia head coach Alessandro Magro wanted to charge his boys, who will be called to confirm themselves as champions after winning the last edition.
"Reaching Turin, we go back a year and we arrive there in a different psychological condition. So we have to remember that the Final Eight gave us the chance to redeem ourselves from the period we were going through and to reach a historic goal, the club’s first trophy. We are called upon to defend the title, having made in the summer some grafts and adjustments that gave us the opportunity to consolidate the potential already expressed, obviously supported by the club that had already decided to continue this project. We managed to make real what we had imagined. Therefore; we are happy to be first, expressing also an effective and pleasant to watch basketball in both halves of the court. We know that in Turin every game counts and that the big favorites are the two superpowers (Milan and Bologna) along with Venice that for years è at the top" began the Leonessa head coach.
"Our biggest victory in three years è having brought incredible enthusiasm and a Germani-mania to the cityà. We have gone from 2,500 to sold out when there isn't a main event. Of course, with victories people begin to dream. We have to però stay with our feet on the ground. My team has always wanted the will to sacrifice, to get their hands dirty. The strength of these guys è thinking about a game. We know that we have to play against Napoli and that we have trimmed an important gap at home GeVi. That has to make us even more ears perk up. Then eventually we will raise the bar and there it would be nice to see if, without changing anything, we were able to close the gap with the bigs. In the first leg, we lost to Bologna and Venice to say" concluded Alessandro Magro.
