“Zenith” beat UNICS in the VTB League match due to the best defensive game and high concentration, Honored Coach of Russia told Sergei Elevich .
On Friday, Zenit defeated UNICS at home in the second stage match of the VTB United League championship with a score of 91:87. After this defeat, the Kazan team lost the lead in the standings of group A. Now UNICS is in second place. CSKA returned to first place. Zenit is third.
— The game went well. And I really liked that Perasovich trusted Vorontsevich and Belenitsky who came to the team. They justified this confidence.
And of course, Zenit rightly celebrates their victory in this match. St. Petersburg took the lead primarily through three-point shooting. Everyone got caught and the situation was therefore problematic for the guests. UNICS, of course, didn’t play defense as well as they could in this game. Zenit acted a little better in this regard. Moreover, the two opponents are the two teams which concede the fewest points in the championship.
“Zenit also looked more motivated and charged with victory, they were more focused,” Elevich told the correspondent.
