After two luxury exhibitions in the Light, one of which resulted in a fantastic victory that surprised the country and galvanized the real basketball fans, the CAB receives Benfica for two games of great importance and intensity. The stage of the meetings will be the CAB Pavilion, with matches taking place at 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. With the ‘series’ tied with a win for each side, the weekend games are fundamental, both for Friends and Benfica, who have precious opportunities to be present in the next phase of the Men's League playoffs. On the eve of the meetings, the CAB's Official Site reached the address of the club's coach, João Paulo Silva, and asked him for a preview of the games. Here's your words: “We depend on our ambition, determination and conviction in the face of the difficulties that will arise to us. We depend only on our work, on the value of our collective capabilities. It is in this spirit of motivation that we will introduce ourselves to these two games in front of one of the strongest teams in this League.” “Benfica has a set of resources of great value, especially in the intense and ‘aggressive’ form that show in defensive aspects. We are a different team and we will certainly use our resources and, once again, try to overcome this elimination.” “We know exactly what means to use in attack and defense so that we can sustain some of the areas where Benfica can gain advantage and, on the other hand, we want to keep the record offensive to a high level that allows us to achieve in the interior and exterior areas.” “The team has the clear notion that everyone should participate in the perspective of adding collective quality, thus increasing the difficulties of our opponent. We are always together in this commitment.” “The moment we recover the home factor, we would like our supporters to confirm that aspect through your presence. Your support conveys confidence and decisively increases the motivation of the group. We want to win for those who support us!”
