UNICS will be happy to win the VTB United League Super Cup, but will not be upset if they fail to win, since it is not a championship match, the president of the Kazan club told . Yevgeny Bogachev .
On the eve of the start of the new VTB League season, the United League Super Cup will be held in Moscow from September 11 to 14. The tournament will bring together CSKA, UNICS, Zenit, Lokomotiv-Kuban, Serbian Red Star and Turkish Besiktas. The new VTB United League season starts on September 21 with the CSKA – UNICS match. CSKA became the champion at the end of last season, UNICS took second place.
— What do you think about the team’s form ahead of the United League Super Cup? What are your expectations from the tournament?
– The last games were in St. Petersburg at the Belov and Kondrashin Cup – you see, they played a little badly there: they took second place in the tournament. So of course there are some problems, but we are solving them. There is always a chance to succeed. The main thing is to prepare for the championship. Next week we will have our first match against CSKA away. This is very serious.
— But still, how important is it to you to win the Super Bowl?
— Well, before, the Gomelsky Cup was held at that time, before the start of the season. There were also good teams playing. The United League Super Cup is of course also a prestigious tournament, but it is not a championship. So if we win, if we win, it will be very nice. If we do not win, if we do not win, we will not be upset. Because there are circumstances that are stronger than us: some players are injured. Now you can throw them into battle, and then you will have to undergo treatment for six months, “Bogachev told .
