Novo: I believe that the finals will be very tense and uncertain!

FIFA23 finals in the 11th season of the A1 Adria League are just around the corner. This weekend gamers will be able to enjoy a lot of fun activities at Zagrebacki velesajam during the Reboot Gaming Weekend. A part of this event is the A1AL FIFA23 finals. In the finals for the title will fight Tarik Novo and Esad Memic. As a favorite, we asked Novo what are his expectations.

The finals of FIFA23 in A1AL are approaching. What are your expectations from this final?

I am very happy to finally attend the LAN Event after so many years of participation in the A1 Adria League. Finally, I will have the opportunity to meet and socialize with people I have only seen through the screen for years. I expect a lot, I believe that the organization will be at a very high level and I am looking forward to coming to Zagreb!

You lost the match against Esad in the upper bracket finals of the playoff, which would have given you a victory in the upcoming final. What happened, a drop in concentration or something else?

It was very tense and I can say that the little things made the difference, Esad coped much better in this match and I congratulate him once again on the match he played.

How was the decisive match against Fico in the final of the lower bracket? It was not an easy 2:0.

The match wasn’t easy, although it might not be so by the result, but I still managed to dominate the field and secure my way to Zagreb.

Despite Esad’s advantage, you are still the favorite to win the title. Considering that you have already done it four times in the past. Does that put a certain pressure on you, and do people have higher expectations for you to perform at the highest level in the finals because of your previous successes?

I would say that we are both favorites, considering that Eso has been present on the FIFA scene longer than me and for me he is the best player from Bosnia and Herzegovina. There is always a little pressure, but I think I function well under pressure. It is true that people expect a lot from me and that gives me even more motivation.

You and Esad have been meeting each other for many years in the A1 Adria League and you know each other’s playstyle very well. What do you expect from your opponent in the final? Maybe a change in tactics or a proven game plan?

I expect a very good game from Esad and I am sure that he will do his best. I believe that the final will be very tense and uncertain.

Finally, what do you want to say to Esad?

I wish Esad the best of luck in the final and may the better player win!
