However, in his meeting with the local journalists before the game against Olympiacos, one of the main topics for coach Sarunas Jasikevicius was Udrih.

As he explained: “I have played against Beno in Europe. And he was a great defender.  My only concern is his physical condition. I was told he worked hard. But it’s a different thing to practice and quite different to play a real game. However, he’ll give us experience and help us. We put ourselves into the situation that we can compete for playoffs. We didn’t want to risk. He was the one who was ready to go”.
