Lokomotiv Kuban it’s too early to relax, despite two away wins against PARI NN in the VTB United League quarter-finals, the Krasnodar defender stressed in a chat with Vladislav Yemchenko .
Kuban won the second game of the series against Nizhny Novgorod on Sunday with a score of 77:72. The third game will take place on April 5 in Krasnodar.
– Of course, it’s always difficult to play away, and also against Nizhny Novgorod. We lost four games in the regular season against them. It gave us more motivation now. We won the first game of the series with a big advantage. I won’t say it was easier, but there was still no such worthwhile ending.
In this game, they have reached the end of the game. They didn’t want to do it, but that’s how it happened. I’m happy that we put pressure on the opposition and confidently scored at the end of the game, defended and won. So happy. We are now going to Krasnodar.
— You took the lead in the series 2:0. Psychologically now, probably, it’s much easier. Or relax early?
– No way to relax. And there can be no conversation. No one in matches with Nizhny, until the end-of-match siren sounds, is not going to relax and will not. You have to win the third game, then you can already say something. Now we will return to Krasnodar and start preparations for the third match,” Yemchenko told a correspondent.
