Head coach of the St. Petersburg basketball club “Zenit” Javier Pascual said the opportunity to release Thomas Ertel and Adrien Moerman, who have recovered from injuries, onto the field again is a very important moment for his team.
THURSDAY “Zenith” defeated Samara in a VTB United League home match (96:58).
— It was a pretty serious match for us. We were able to execute the plan well both offensively and defensively, and overall we started this game well.
— Zenit had a difficult start. What has changed now that the team has won seven games in a row?
— We won the Super Bowl, then there were several defeats. Injuries have hampered us to some extent, but through hard work we are winning.
— Moerman and Ertel were on the court together for the first time in a long time after recovering from injuries. How much does this combination strengthen Zenit?
“Their return is a very important moment.” But it is preceded by a long training process. Our medical staff did a great job getting them back in the game. Ertel is very good as a scorer and Moerman is very good in defense. But above all, we work together as a team and we are very happy about it,” reports the correspondent, reporting Pascual’s words.
