The Israeli team does not have much time to rest after the dramatic and impressive 87:89 victory against Finland in overtime, because already tonight (Saturday) the next opponent in the European Championship - the Dutch team - is waiting for them.
This morning, the team's players held the final training for the match.
The national team's forward, Rafi Manko, said after training: "Thoughts this morning are already about the upcoming game.
We were very happy with how we opened the championship, certainly after the last week we had, but we are focusing on the Netherlands now.'
Manko added: "I don't think the guys should get down, we should come focused and meet a good and aggressive team that made life difficult for Serbia." "To play day after day?
We as players prefer to play every day than just practice.
I believe that players who played less yesterday will get more minutes today.
Has the pressure been released?
I don't think there was pressure.'
