Basketball player “Zenith » Sergey Karasev desired football “Zenith »Win gold medals at the Russian Championship for the sixth time in a row.
On May 5, basketball Zenit will play the first match of the VTB United League semi-final series with CSKA Moscow. Zenit players will play three matches with the army team in May. One of them – as part of the final of the RPL FONBET Cup of Russia – has already taken place (on May 1, the teams played 1:1 in Moscow). Now Zenit and CSKA will meet at the Gazprom Arena on May 11 in the 28th matchday of the MIR RPL, and then on May 15 in the second leg of the cup.
— It is interesting that now the football of “Zenith”, taking into account the Russian Cup, will have a kind of series of matches with CSKA.
– Of course, I wish the Zenit football guys good luck in the second leg of the cup match with CSKA after the 1:1 draw in Moscow. And also during the championship game. I think we should beat the army team in both football and basketball (smiles). So we will only focus on winning.
— What can you say about the plans of football Zenit to extend the contract of head coach Sergei Semak until 2030?
— Of course, I’ve heard about it before. This is great news. Sergei Bogdanovich is a Russian coach who led Zenit to the championship five years in a row. I’m happy for him personally, because we know each other and are on very good terms.
But overall I think it’s a very correct decision. No matter what they say about the number and strength of Zenit’s legionnaires, being constantly at the top is very difficult, it requires a lot of work. Well, for now I wish Sergei Bogdanovich good luck in the Cup and in the remaining matches of the championship. The schedule is difficult, but I sincerely wish Zenit football a sixth championship in a row,” Karasev told .
