Head Basketball Coach CSKA Emil Rajkovic after an away victory “Zenith” during the VTB United League regular season match, he noted that the club was looking for options to strengthen the team, but the influence of one player in the team should not be excessive.
On Sunday, CSKA beat Zenit. The meeting in St. Petersburg ended with a score of 80:76 in favor of the guests.
— I would like to thank my players and the Zenit players for this match.
All meetings between Zenit and CSKA are hotly contested. I’m glad we were able to stick to the game plan and win.
We played good defense. Fraser and Ertel played well for the opponent, who managed to bring the team back into the match. But our guys played better at the end, so we won.
The players showed character, that was our advantage today.
How dependent are we on Casper Ware? Each team depends on certain players. But we have 11 extra people playing defense and rebounding. Did you notice how Ruzhentsev played? This is a young Russian basketball player who is improving before our eyes.
Kasper missed a month due to injury, he is slowly returning to the game.
I don’t want the team to depend on one player. Sixth Legionnaire? We are looking for a player, I can’t say when exactly he will appear. The NBA preseason is now coming to an end. I hope they will release the players and we will find someone who will strengthen us, ”reports the correspondent of , reporting Raikovich’s words.
CSKA won the third victory in three matches of the new season, Zenit suffered a second defeat with a victory.
