against Milan, ASVEL immediately gets to the heart of the matter
ASVEL begins a new Euroleague season this Thursday evening.
Villeurbanne basketball players received the Italians from Olympia Milan on the first day of the prestigious European competition, which will kick off at 8 p.m. at the Astroballe.
After a sluggish start to the championship, TJ Parker’s men spoke of this match without pressure, as Joffrey Lauvergne explained in a pre-match press conference: “We are always excited at the start of the season, but it is up to us to remain calm because it is the first meeting of a long series. We will be up against a very strong team, it’s a great challenge and I think we’re ready to take it up.“.
“We will face one of the biggest teams in Euroleague, built to finish in the last four“, also recognized TJ Parker.
But nothing to worry about the Villeurbannais coach, yet deprived of his captain, Charles Kahudi: “Of course, we need to pick up the pace. We need to train together and we haven’t done that much with the whole team yet, so it’s a bit complicated. But Milan aren’t quite there yet either. We will be at home, so anything can happen. We will have to go ahead and play a big game“.
