11/01/2022

Valencia Basket returns to action more than two weeks later to face the first leg of the Round of 16 of the EuroCup Women against Orman Genclik in Ankara, Turkey. Rubén Burgos assesses the state of the team after the break.


The coach admited that "we are worried about the rhythm of the game, the fluidity, after many days, weeks, without competing and without training at the same pace. With two days of work together at what level we will be for this game, we are worried. I am also concerned about the state in which Laura Gil will be able to show, after the break she had at the end of the year she is evolving very well both physically and mentally from the ailments she had, but in these few days a previous pain has appeared that has not allowed her to work at one hundred percent. We will see between now and the day of the match how she feels and how we are all facing a trip that is going to be complicated. It is a different schedule to play at four in the afternoon local time and we will arrive at the destination hotel at 11 at night so there are few hours to rest, but it will give us time to have a first shot with the arena, to work on scouting and try to be at our one hundred percent at that time for the match".
