Any experience of playing for the Russian national team is now very useful, so playing two more matches with Venezuela at the Friendship Cup will be interesting, the national team defender told . Alexander Shcherbenev .
The Friendship Cup is being held in Perm with the participation of the national teams of Russia, Venezuela, Colombia and the PARMA club. In the opening match of the cup, the Colombian team lost to PARMA with a score of 53:155. The Colombian Basketball Federation later announced that it was not sending a national team to participate in this tournament. On Thursday, in the context of this news, the RFB updated the competition schedule: the Russian team will not play with the Colombians, but will play two additional matches with the Venezuelan team.
— How can you comment on the victory against PARMA in a match that started without success for the team?
— We were preparing for a difficult match. We understood that it would not be easy. We failed a little at the beginning of the match, but the most important thing is that we showed character and came back, found our advantage and led the match to victory. A great victory in a match against a serious opponent.
— The Colombian Basketball Federation made a lot of noise. As a result, the tournament schedule was redrawn. How did you feel about meeting Venezuela twice more?
— Yes, any game experience is useful to us. They are a good opponent, so we will be happy to play with them,” Shcherbenev told .
