After securing its place in Eurobasket, the Israeli team took off today (Monday) for Poland, where it will meet the Romanian and Spanish teams. The one who did not travel with the other players was Idan Zalmanson, after it was discovered that his relative was positive about Corona.
Coach Oded Katash Shared before takeoff: “In this respect it turned out well, I do not have to lose games with Panathinaikos, but the fact that there are eight sick players is less. We are concentrated in the team, we have an intense and fun week, I also miss everyone, the players, I am proud to finish this window After we have already qualified, but want to finish in good taste. “
“It could very well be my last window, but it’s okay too. To finish four years, we talked about it. I’m proud of the way, and if this will be the last window I hope someone continues down the road, there is a good future. Thoughts, dreams, directing things and reality is different. You will know what a day will bring. ”
Katsch added: “I am after a journey of more than 24 hours through Frankfurt and rescue flights just to get here and go out with the team, the reality is crazy. I hope everyone in the end gets vaccinated and we can get out of it. A team has been formed here that really enjoys playing together on the field and being together, that’s the key. I share it, I get excited and enjoy it. “
“There will be no attempts, everyone who plays deserves it, it will be to win this game or games in the future. In another situation I would say we will see young players, but even so the team is very young. If it is possible to let another player or two come in and feel and get the opportunity, we will do it. “
