MADRID, 1 Ene. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Barça coach, Sarunas Jasikevicius, warned of the importance of having a high level of “motivation” in the Endesa League Clásico this Monday against Real Madrid, where the white team will want to make up for their last defeat, a “great game”. which, as such, will be decided “in the details”.
“We are all excited to play this game. We have had little time to prepare it. We already know each other and the key, as always, will be the fight and afterwards, it is a great game, and great games are won in the details,” he said this Sunday in statements to the club’s media collected by Europa Press.
The Lithuanian coach referred to Culé’s victory against Red Star and Madrid’s defeat against Cazoo Baskonia in the Euroleague matchday prior to this strong start to 2023. “The most important thing is that they are not more motivated than us. We come from an agonizing victory, that we need to get all the pride and everything we needed in the last minutes. They arrive a little angry and if they are more eager than us it will be difficult”, he pointed out.
“Against Madrid it’s never just another game. The players have to understand that they have to raise the level even more and that they have to do things even better than in any other game,” he finished, asking his players for an extra in a clash at the top of the table in the Endesa League.
