Veszprém – Motor pregame statements

Telekom Veszprém will continue the EHF Champions League on Wednesday against the Ukrainian champions HC Motor. Before the game, we asked the expectations of our head coach and players.

David Davis: We want to keep the second position in the group, because the first is almost impossible to reach by now. We want to win at home. Zaporozhye has a really good team, and they are having a good season so far. They are one point behind us, although with one less game, so they mean the biggest danger for us right now. We have to win the match to put more space between us. We would like to play a serious game and respect our opponent.

Gasper Marguc: Motor is a good team. They depend a lot on their playmaker, Malasinkskas and his connection with the line player so will focus a lot on that. Of course, we would like to continue what we have started in Celje, carry on with the winning streak because I think overall we are a better team than them, but we have to prove it on the court.

Blaz Blagotinsek: We have to play a good game against Motor, especially in defense. We know that Zaporozhye is a good team. They play fast and they have a few good players. They run a lot in attack, and I think that if we stop that, it will be the key to victory.

Petar Nenadic: I would like to see ourselves continuing on the winning track. For is, it is important to get back to our rhythm of the game. The other important thing for us is to win the game that is how we build up our team.
