Challenge in Kosovo for Reggio Emilia, Fucà: "Need solidity"

UNA Hotels Reggiana returns to FIBA Europe Cup play Tuesday at the home of Bashkimi. The two-game ball is scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Sezai Surroi in Prizren, Kosovo.

The hosts are coming off an 89-69 victory over Cibona last week, which allowed them to rekindle their hopes of qualifying for the second group stage of the competition.

Coach Federico Fucà keeps his eyes up: “We play another very important cup game, decisive for our path within the competition. Bashkimi comes from an overpowering win against Cibona, at home, where they dominated the game. We have to be ready to play a solid match from the defensive point of view and at the same time to control the pace of the game, I think these two aspects will be crucial for the final result”.
