Colombian coach at the Friendship Cup: “There was a misunderstanding between the federations, but we plan to continue participating”

Colombian basketball team coach Jorge Vazquez told that the team will continue to participate in the Friendship Cup in Perm, and also noted that the team was upset by the misunderstanding that occurred between the basketball federations of Russia and Colombia.

The Friendship Cup is being held in Perm with the participation of the national teams of Russia, Venezuela, Colombia and the PARMA club. In the opening match of the cup, the Colombian team lost to PARMA with a score of 53:155. The Colombian Basketball Federation later announced that it was not sending a national team to participate in this tournament. On Thursday, in the context of this news, the RFB updated the competition schedule: the Russian team will not play with the Colombians, but will play two additional matches with the Venezuelan team. The PARMA youth team will face the Colombian team.

— This issue was resolved at the level of the federations, they agreed among themselves in advance, so I have no right to give a different answer. A misunderstanding arose between the federations, which can only upset us. But this issue is resolved at the level of interaction between the two federations. We plan to continue participating in the tournament and will continue to work. It is important for us to gain as much experience as possible by playing against strong opponents. We will also work on technique and shooting, which the team does not always succeed in doing. Our main goals remain: to work and gain experience, “Vazquez said on the air of the program “Everyone for the match!” on the channel.
