Basketball players CSKA at the end of the match with “Zenith” approached the game wisely and thanks to that they were able to win a tense fight, the Army defender told Ivan Ukhov .
CSKA defeated Zenit on Sunday in the VTB United League home match with a score of 83:77.
— At one point, it looked like the game was definitely going to go into overtime. How did CSKA manage to prevent this?
“We expected a tough battle.” It was clear from the start that this wouldn’t work for anyone. That’s how it all happened. But at the right, decisive moment, we managed to approach the match with composure, without forcing our attacks and to bring the matter to its logical conclusion. On defense, of course, we had failures. This is not to say that everything was perfect in this regard.
But overall we played well today against the leader Zenit. The quality of their players is very high and of course they often find their shots, which they did late in the match. It’s great that twenty seconds before the end we managed to defend ourselves without making a mistake, and after that we were sure that we would lead this match to victory,” Ukhov told .
