VTB United League CEO Elon Korstin believes that a wider rotation, as well as an injury to a key CSKA basketball player Alexei Shved in the deciding game of the tournament, they helped Zenit win gold medals. Korstin spoke to about it.
Saint PETERSBOURG “Zenith » won Moscow CSKA in the seventh game of the VTB United League final series and won it with a score of 4-3.
– Why were Zenit stronger in the final? I think he was really ready for that long streak and he had a wider rotation. For CSKA, the key was the loss of Alexei Shved in the third quarter – due to injury he could not help the team in the end. After all, when glasses were a must, he showed up perfectly throughout the series. Of course, that wasn’t enough in the end. Zenit was ready for this long streak – several team players acted as leaders at once, and this became decisive in the final 7-game series, – Korstin told .
Zenit won the VTB United League for the first time in history.
