Team at European Championship Mumbru acknowledges basketball players' assistance
Germany, the reigning world champions, are gearing up for their semifinals match against Slovenia in the EuroBasket final round, taking place in Riga. The team's coach, Alex Mumbru, has stepped back due to health reasons, but he remains with the team during the tournament.
Mumbru, a 46-year-old Spaniard, is recovering from a pancreatic inflammation. He expressed his gratitude to his players for their support during this challenging time, stating that the team is like a family, and they all stand together when one is attacked.
The team gathered with Mumbru and his assistant coach, Alan Ibrahimagic, to show their support during a media session. Ibrahimagic will take over sideline responsibilities from Mumbru during the EuroBasket final round, a role he has previously filled during the group phase in Tampere, Finland.
However, the specific details about Mumbru's health condition beyond the pancreatic inflammation are not provided. Reports of Mumbru's full retirement are false, as he remains the head coach of the team.
The match between Germany and Slovenia is scheduled for Wednesday at 8:00 PM, but the location of the match is not specified. Despite Mumbru's temporary absence, the team is determined to continue their winning streak and secure a spot in the semifinals.
Mumbru's health concerns have not deterred the team's spirit, and they are confident that Ibrahimagic will lead them well during this crucial match. The team's resilience and unity are evident, and they are ready to face Slovenia in their quest for a spot in the semifinals.
