CSKA defender Ivan Ukhov explained to why the Moscow club played unconvincingly in the first half of the VTB United League opening match with Kazan UNICS.
CSKA On Saturday, at home, in the opening match of the new VTB United League season, they beat UNICS with a score of 71:55. After the first quarter, the army team was losing by nine points to its opponent.
— CSKA was inferior to its opponent in the first two quarters, but after a long break it took a clear lead. How would you comment on this?
— The advantage was created by good defense. UNICS just sank at that point, we were able to find our game. Well, then we controlled the course of events and led the game to victory.
— What went wrong in the first half of the meeting? Did you miss the start?
— Yes, we started the game very slowly. Maybe we thought that we had confidently beaten UNICS a week ago in the Super Cup. There was a little slackening, for which UNICS punished us in the first half, emphasizing that we need to change our mental side and play differently,” Ukhov told .
