11.03.10 - Niko preserves himself for Ciudad Real

He will take no risks and more than sure he will not be on the field against Minden tonight (20.15 o´clock). He prefers to save himself at maximum and to be as fit as a fiddle for the match against Ciudad Real on Sunday.


- Hi Nikola, how are you after this superb victory against Svendborg?

"I would say so-so. I injured myself twice during this dispute, at the right ankle and at the left knee. Well, at the ankle it was bigger the fear as the pains and that´s because I feel no pains there today. In contrast, the knee still makes me suffer. It had a maximum extension. It isn´t very serious, but it asks for repose."

- So we will not see you on the soil against Minden tonight...

"No, it is more prudent this way. I prefer to be as fit as a fiddle in order to reach finally the Champions League´s quarterfinals. I remind you that the last time when we received Ciudad Real in our hall, we lost both the game and the Champions League trophy."

- But you are almost qualified for the quaterfinals due to your win in Denmark...

"Yes, but mathematically everything is possible. The Danes can overtake us. It is sufficient for them to win the next three games while we will lose our three matches. But we are so careful because just three days after the dispute with Ciudad Real we will have the pleasure to be visited by Svendborg."

- Are you glad to meet again Didier Dinart and Luc Abalo ?

"They are my pals, so evidently that I am glad to see them again even if it is not so much ago since we have seen us last time. Anyway, there will be four World Champions on the field on Sunday. A gala performance, isn´t it? "
