Rosen Barchovski: I feel we′ll make a good game

Today Rilski Sportist will visit Peja in a game from group A of EUROHOLD Balkan League. Here is what the head coach of the team from Samokov - Rosen Barchovski said hours before the tip-off:   "Peja is a very good team for the Balkan League. They have quality players on each position. The bench is not so long but have eight players and the team is at a very good level at each position.   They play with great desire. We won them hard in Samokov. Here the atmosphere is such that it′s very difficult for anybody to win. Despite that all we came to Peja with the ambition and desire to win and I was seeing it happenning. The worst thing though is the fact that Zarko Rakocevic was hit hard in the last game and will not play tonight. Everybody can immagine what that means. I′m a realist. It will be very difficult for us and they are the favourite. Very often though the other players compensate in such situations. There will be no pressure and this is what I′ll tell them. It′s important for us to perform well. So far in each of our away games we are performing well and were very close to the hosts. So far in that tournament we′ve always won an important away game. If the luck sees us it can happen. Despite everything I have a feeling that at least we′ll play a good game.   At first the two groups seemed even but now it′s completely the opposite. Ours turned out to be much stronger, much unpredictable and it will be like this until the last game. We are all still fighting to advance, we have good chances. We can even qualify with two losses depending also on the other games and probably this is what will happen. However we′ll try to win at least one game - tonight or against Kumanovo at home. If we win today then our last home game will be for the first place in the group. It′s a very interesting group and I can′t remember such a competition for a long time. It′s very interesting."
