BRA - Guilherme ready for tough test

BRASILIA (FIBA World Championship) - Guilherme is expecting a tough test when Brazil take part in the Super 4 tournament in Brasilia this weekend.

Ruben Magnano's squad will continue their preparations for the FIBA World Championship by taking on Venezuela on Saturday before facing the winner of the tie between Angola and Chile on Sunday.

"The expectation is to have a good tournament," said Guilherme. "We will be facing teams of a higher standard so there is a bit more anxiety at this stage of our preparation.

"Magnano has been paying special attention to defense during practice and he is very meticulous about our positioning.

"The team is united and strong."

Brazil have been drawn in Group B for the FIBA World Championship and will face Iran, Tunisia, the United States, Slovenia and Croatia.
