Vatutin – about the victory in the VTB United League: “It was the most difficult playoffs in the history of CSKA”

President CSKA Andrei Vatutin On , he called the latest VTB United League draw the most difficult in the history of the Moscow basketball club.

On Wednesday, CSKA beat UNICS in the fifth game of the final with a score of 66:55 and won the series – 4-1. The Moscow club won the tournament for the 11th time in its history.

“I would like to thank everyone involved in this victory. I also want to thank the fans: there were a large number of Moscow fans at the match. I think it was the most difficult playoffs for CSKA in the VTB United League. It was a real battle. It’s very nice that CSKA won this battle. Thank you to loved ones, families and children. Even my daughter Veronica participated a little in this finale; in the third game of the series, she was hit in the head by a ball from Nenad Dimitrievich. Turns out she hit that ending as well. I would like to congratulate Evgeny Bogachev and Kazan on a good season. Until today, UNICS was the champion.

I would like to do without these slogans that the cup has come home. The VTB United League is a very competitive league. Maybe the champions will change, but CSKA will do everything to make our championship permanent.

It’s not a miracle that CSKA became champions. We did a lot of work and, above all, became a real team. We were there for each other in every game and every practice. This championship is very precious to me. I am very happy for Andreas Pistiolis, who made CSKA a champion in a month and a half. I would also like to thank Emil Rajkovic. He gave everything he could to CSKA and worked as much as possible, this championship is also his merit. I am very happy that this difficult journey is finally over and we can rest,” Vatoutine said on .
