Italian national team head coach Gianmarco Pozzecco expressed his thoughts ahead of the 2023 FIBA World Cup debut against Angola.

“Tomorrow we will be given the opportunity to witness a unique atmosphere, the occasion to live the moment in an almost full arena with 46,000 tickets already sold,” Pozzecco said.

“What we built is a national team loved and respected, and the sporting result won’t take this from us. Every day we add solidity, we’ve shared a tough job, my difficulties, my anxieties.”
