Kiril Lazarov: „ No opponents should be underestimated„

World Championship debutants Iran showed an outstanding performance against Bosnia-Herzegovina, but finally left the arena empty-handed. Their result should be a warning signal for the Macedonians, who hope to make a huge step towards the eighth finals by adding another two-pointer on their tally.

"We expect to win every game as we are a quality team. We're going for the victory, although we know that we have a strong opponent and a tough group," Macedonian top scorer Kiril Lazarov said, adding: "No opponents should be underestimated. But we are favourites with a great player depth and a good bench to provide an excellent game."
