– Is it a feeling? The result of this match does not surprise me at all. I generally like UNICS. Also, the game was quite open. There was no such protection. You rarely see when CSKA concedes so much in the first half. This, of course, played a role somewhere. Then when they started catching the opponent, they started to play more actively, they made double tackles, so the opponent had a lot of losses. From there, the situation has already turned in favor of CSKA. Nevertheless, the game was extended and in those five minutes UNICS managed to turn the tide and achieve the desired result.
In general, summing up the results of this meeting, I would say that the owners of the site won due to the fact that they played very well on offense in the first two quarters. It’s the first. In addition, Labery and Dimitrievitch showed themselves perfectly individually. Especially at the end. At the decisive moment, they took their responsibilities. I think this victory UNICS rehabilitated for the defeat in the Russian Cup of “BET NN”, – said Elevich “”.
According to the results of past matches, CSKA leads the group A standings, UNICS is second.
