Our team for our Semifinal clash against the Romanian Wolves in the Rugby Europe Super Cup has been locked in.
Coach Kevin Musikanth discusses the big clash...
"The pressure is now on the top 4 teams in the play offs. From our perspective we are facing a very tough Romanian Wolves team who have been unbeaten and thumping teams in their pool. They have conceded minimal points and have a very solid set phase. We have prepared well for this semi final and have utilised the extra week since the Black Lion match to technically work on our game plan for the semi final."
He adds....
"They have conceded minimal points and have a very solid set phase. We have prepared well for this semifinal and have utilised the extra week since the Black Lion match to technically work on our game plan for the semifinal. The weather will be a factor in this fixture and it will come down to the team that wants it the most. We have our goals for the season and in order for our journey to continue we will need to get through this tough fixture on top. All remaining teams and coaches will have their eyes on the super cup trophy and we are the same."
When asked about his team performance from last match he continues....
"I am happy with the way my team responded after the team talk in the middle of a cold and wet field in Cyprus were we were dead and buried at 26 - 6 down against the double champions littered with Georgia World Cup international. To have the ball with 3 minutes to go and fight our way back to 29-27 only to come short by a couple of points shows what the Tel Aviv Heat can do when under pressure. Semifinals are pressure and I am confident that no matter what our boys will play to the end and build on that second half performance against the Black Lion. May the best team win..."
