After the opening defeat against Switzerland on Thursday-evening at home, our women will travel to Italy to face the hosts on Sunday at 18:00 in the Eurobasket 2023 qualification tournament.
Head coach Mariusz Dziurdzia was not satisfied with team’s loss against Switzerland and said that the team „did not show its potential, especially on offense. » Against Italy, Luxembourg obviously faces a stronger opponent, the team is ranked 13th in the FIBA world rankings. Italy won its opening game 69:66 against Slovakia on Thursday.
„We will try to play as well as we can, the goal is always to compete with the opponent », says Dziurdzia who wants his team to play „free and more relaxed compared to the game against Switzerland ».
The game is clearly a special one for Lisa Jablonowski and Nadia Mossong. Jablonowski is playing professional basketball in Italy while Mossong has been playing professional basketball in Italy for many years.
