Zeljko Obradovic, Partizan head coach
"We decided to cancel today’s practice, considering that, given the demanding schedule, this was the best solution. Ahead of us is a game against Olimpia Milano, a team that played an outstanding game against Crvena Zvezda and had previously shown excellent form in the Italian Super Cup. Nevertheless, the focus must remain on us. I was surprised by the way we played against Dubai, bearing in mind that throughout the entire preparation period we played with much greater aggressiveness and had three very good practices before the trip. These are things we must change and pay close attention to, in order to prepare in the best possible way for the upcoming game against Milan."
Arijan Lakic, Partizan forward
"We need to realize the season’s already underway and be more locked in tomorrow, especially since Milan got a win yesterday. The key now is to get some rest, prepare the right way, and be ready for what’s going to be a tough game. We’ve got to keep looking forward, but with our focus fully on Milan. We need to recognize what adjustments have to be made and show improvement, and hopefully we’ll prove that tomorrow. Playing at home in front of our crowd means a lot, and we’re excited for that."
