Cantero, after the elimination of Casademont Zaragoza: "Getting this far is historic"

The Casademont Zaragoza women's team left the Palais des Sports du Prado in Bourges tonight "strengthened" and "proud". This was acknowledged by their coach, Carlos Cantero, who acknowledged the positive impact that a match like the one this Wednesday in France can have on the Aragonese team .

"We were really looking forward to coming here and making up for the first leg. It's very important to leave with the feeling of winning, of victory, this win reinforces the pride we feel for having come this far. It's something historic for a club like ours," said Carlos Cantero, who once again thanked the "effort" and "dedication" of all his players.

In his press conference after the return match against French side Tango Bourges, the coach looked back and lamented the lack of success that had plagued Casademont Zaragoza at certain times during the European season.

" It's a shame about the details of a tray, a free throw, not having finished in a better position, not having the normal percentages at home to equalize the result a little more... We leave with a very good taste in our mouths from our two years in the Euroleague," said the Madrid native.

The mind, in the future

With the European campaign over, Casademont is now focusing on everything that lies ahead, which is no small feat. The most immediate thing is the Women's League this weekend. But, in addition, in less than a month a new edition of the Queen's Cup will land in the Aragonese capital .

"We are going to work over the next few days to recover our minds and legs. To continue introducing new players into the team. It is a bit of a process that we have to follow. At the moment, we have four league games in which we have to go from less to more . Today is a step forward in that aspect to reach the Queen's Cup in the best conditions," he said.

The Aragonese team, awaiting the end of the current 2024-25 season, last night said goodbye to two consecutive campaigns in the best continental competition.
