Parma head coach Evgeny Pashutin after the VTB United League regular season meeting with Zenit, he said that controlling the pace of the game could be the key to the club’s future success in matches against the favorites.
On Wednesday, Parma was beaten by Zenit. The meeting in St. Petersburg ended with a score of 78:54 in favor of the home team. Parma is 12th in the standings with six defeats.
— We lost 14 rebounds. They couldn’t attack because they couldn’t fight back. Our front line could not ensure the rebound. In the third quarter, they started fighting back and controlled the rebound. In attack – six assists, we keep the ball.
Zenit is a smart team. Both manage to attack and come back, but the ball does not move in a sufficient series. We enter the crowd somewhere and do not attack. We need to control the ball better and play to win. In the third and fourth quarters, the draw was better.
The opponents are not easy, but we are not complaining. We need to come together, show character and be physically fit. By controlling the pace of the game, we can defeat strong teams,” reports a correspondent, according to Pashutin.
