“To bring the series back to Moscow, CSKA must show the same level of activity and dedication as Loko” – Keiru

CSKA in the sixth match of the VTB United League semi-final against Lokomotiv Kuban you have to show the same level of dedication and activity as the opponent to transfer the series to the seventh game, the former defender of the Moscow club told Victor Keyru .

The railroaders lead the best-of-four semifinal with a score of 3–2. The sixth game will take place in Krasnodar on Friday. The meeting will start at 8:00 p.m. (Moscow time). Watch the live broadcast on starting at 7:55 p.m. (Moscow time).

– As CSKA can win in the upcoming match, so can Lokomotiv. Previous games in the series have shown that both teams can win home and away. It is therefore very difficult here to predict the course of the match and its result. Of course, it’s hard to overestimate the importance of this match for CSKA and Lokomotiv. Therefore, the team players will be extremely motivated.

Loko is performing incredibly well in the playoffs. Frankly, no one could have imagined that Krasnodar would play so well in the semi-finals against CSKA. Although already in the first game, I and many basketball players understood why Lokomotiv looked so good in the quarterfinals with Nizhny. We see that it is a solid, well-organized team that gives the best. They give their best on every inch of the field, fight for every ball, their decision speed is excellent. That’s why they impose such a serious fight on CSKA.

Of course, if the leaders of CSKA play well and the team will give their best in the same way as Lokomotiv, the Muscovites have a good chance. But it is clear that it will not be easy with the over-motivated Loko. It’s difficult to play against such an opponent. Therefore, in order to bring the series home, CSKA in the upcoming game must show the same level of activity and dedication as Lokomotiv,” Keyru told a correspondent.
