Moscow Coach CSKA Emile Raikovitch reported that the basketball player Alexei Shved will come to support the team in the remaining matches of the series for third place in the VTB United League, if he feels well.
On Wednesday, CSKA beat Zenit in the third match with the score of 71:60. The score of the series up to four wins became 2-1 in favor of CSKA. On the evening of May 1, unknown persons attacked Shved near one of the restaurants in Moscow, the athlete was injured in the head with fractures of the bones of the skull and a contusion of the brain. On Tuesday, the player said he was discharged from hospital.
— Today was an important game in the third and fourth quarters. The final score is 60:71. It shows how well we approached the second part of the match. Am I afraid of a technical fault? If you are already dead, you have nothing to fear. Each game has its own story. In the fourth match, there will be a tactical and physical battle. You have to analyze previous matches to beat Zenit.
I think Shved has no chance to play in the remaining games of the season. If he’s feeling good, he’ll come and cheer on the team,” a correspondent said of Raikovich.
CSKA striker Livio Jean-Charles called the final match with the battle “blue-white-blue”.
“It was a real battle. The way we fought and defended became the key to our victory. We gave our best and we trusted each other in defense. We are CSKA, we are championship contenders , we are always ready to win,” said Jean-Charles.
