Dusko Ivanovic has previewed the second round ABA League game in which Crvena Zvezda will host Cedevita Olimpija.
The coach of the Red-Whites emphasizes that the team from Ljubljana is considered to be an exceptionally good team and that the support of the fans would mean a lot to his players.
“We are expecting a very experienced team led by an excellent coach. Cedevita Olimpija is a formidable opponent, and they will improve from game to game. They’ve undergone quite a few changes, and it takes time to gel, just like us,” said Dusko Ivanovic, adding:
“We need full concentration in this match, the high intensity I demand from the guys, and strong support from the stands. I invite the fans to come and support us because, as I always say, with their support, everything becomes much, much easier.”
The basketball player from Crvena Zvezda, Stefan Lazarevic, also previewed the game against Cedevita Olimpija:
“We are facing a game against a good team with a large number of very experienced players, starting with Blazic, Kobs, Radicevic, Klobucar… I won’t list them all, but it’s really a good team that, like us, will need time to gel and show their quality.
We’ve had a good start in both competitions, and we want to continue in the same rhythm, but we’ll have to play a good game. That’s why I call on our fans to support us; we are in a new environment when it comes to the ABA League, and this will be our first game in the Arena in the ABA League.”
The game between Crvena Zvezda and Cedevita Olimpija is scheduled for Sunday, starting at 19:45 (Stark Arena). Crvena Zvezda will play their next EuroLeague match on Friday against Zalgiris in Lithuania.
