"We're Excited Playing US".....Wakama
D'Tigress Head Coach, Rena Wakama has expressed excitment in meeting the World Champion, United States of America at the quarter final stage of the 2024 Olympics.
Wakama who spoke virtually from Paris, France said "we are really excited because we want to play the best of the best".
"We believe that everything happened for a reason. We met them already in Belgium but we did not play our best so we are looking forward to meeting them again on Wednesday and playing better. So we are looking forward to it".
Speaking further, the Rivers state born former basketballer said "I think the first game that we played with them was an eye opener. We were able to watch the game and break down what we did wrong, what we did good and I think now that our girls has the experience of playing against them, it would help alot. We've also played about five games now, we have three friendly and three matches here so we are going into the game confidently. Playing well and we have a great addition to the team (Ezinne), that brings another level of intensity and experience to us. So I think USA has not played against this team before because the team the played against in Belgium is different from this team. So we are looking forward to doing what we do and do it well".
