Quadruple champion of the USSR Vladimir Gomelsky in an interview with a correspondent, he said that in the third game of the VTB United League bronze medal series, none of the basketball players showed a high level game.
On Wednesday, CSKA defeated Zenit in the third game of the VTB United League bronze medal series with a score of 71:60. The score of the series up to four wins became 2-1 in favor of CSKA.
– Today there were no players who would play at least to the maximum of their abilities. Neither at Zenit nor at CSKA. From the first minute of the third quarter, it was as if the air had escaped from half of Zenit’s squad. Ertel, Homesley and Morman from Zenit did not show their game. At CSKA, Moore hit his three points, but did not do without defeats. In general, the army team played very collected and concentrated in the second half in defense, but what happened to Zenit – I have no explanation. And when I watched this match, I tried to find an answer to the question: why don’t these teams play the final for gold? I may have had the answer – both teams have noticeable failures during the game, as well as the inability to give their all at the decisive moment. In the seventh minute of the third quarter, Zenit had such a moment, alas, they couldn’t do anything. CSKA took advantage of this. Team Army won the Shield again today, rebounds that helped them win. Honestly, I’m happy, – said Gomel’s “”.
The fourth match will take place on Friday at the Zenith site.
