Quadruple champion of the USSR Vladimir Gomelsky after the conquest CSKA VTB United League bronze medalists told that the Moscow team ended the season on a high note.
On Monday, CSKA Moscow basketball players beat Zenit St. Petersburg on home soil in the fifth game of the series for third place in the VTB United League and won the tournament bronze medals. The match ended with a score of 82:79 in favor of the army team. Dallas Moore led the way with 15 points.
The best-of-four series score was 4-1 in favor of CSKA.
“It was a tense series with some very nice games. Today’s decisive game could not have been beautiful by definition. However, both teams showed class and character. “Zenith” managed to reduce the score difference, then to take the lead, showing his best qualities.
CSKA Raikovich, after many experiments with the composition, was able to choose the most suitable. I don’t mean these five are heroes, the whole team fought for medals. Is it worth congratulating CSKA for this? I don’t know, once a great coach told me: “There is only one place in sports – the first, and all the others are last.” But I congratulate all CSKA fans, coaching staff and the team – it’s a good end to the season on a positive note, – said Gomel .
