— Paris Nizhny Novgorod led the score for most of the match. But finally “Runa” equalized. Did your heart skip a beat?
– No, it didn’t miss a beat. Let’s start with the fact that we understood that “Runa” is a serious opponent and has remained undefeated until today. I can say that we finally had losses. This is, of course, the merit of the opponent, and it will be a lesson for us so that in the future we do not make such mistakes and blunders. However, the opponent is very strong. Now there are no weak players in the league at all. Everyone can, everyone runs and can score. But today we were stronger and thank God.
—Was Runa’s leadership a surprise?
– No, we saw this opponent. They have a good team and a good coaching staff. They put together a decent team. But we go out to play 5 against 5, so we don’t give in to them, but we don’t exalt them either. We are building our own game and everything will be up to us. Nevertheless, he is a good starter in the championship.
— So far, your team is undefeated. Maybe you are ready to compete for first place?
— First of all, we go from game to game and we don’t look that far. The main task is to play basketball, perfect your skills and interaction. Both in defense and attack. Wait and watch. Let’s go, thank God, not bad. Nevertheless, we have injured players, there are times when we make mistakes, have losses, things that we want to eliminate. So we don’t think so far ahead, our task is to go and be together, and then we will see, ”Vorontsevich told .
