“Vedishchev managed to find an approach to the team. “Loko feels good, but challenges remain” – Grigoriev

Lokomotiv-Kuban’s winning streak at the start of the United League championship suggests that head coach Andrei Vedishchev was able to find an approach to the team, says the silver medalist of the VTB League in the Krasnodar team Maxim Grigoriev .

At the start of the VTB United League season, Lokomotiv has won seven wins in seven matches and is at the top of the standings.

Andrey Vedishchev began to combine the positions of club president and head coach of the team in August.

— Are the maximum results and unique leadership of Lokomotiv at the start of the championship surprising?

— It’s not that surprising, but it’s still the only team that remains undefeated. However, the only match with direct competitors was against Zenit, and the Krasnodar team has not yet met CSKA and UNICS. So there is still more to come. So far, Lokomotiv is not making any mistakes. But it’s difficult to go through a season without defeat. I will have to watch matches with top 4 teams.

— For the moment, this result doesn’t say much?

“He says that head coach Andrei Vedishchev managed to find an approach for the team. The team feels good, they don’t have bad matches, they have enough confidence throughout the match. But major challenges remain to be met.

There will now be a home match against UNICS. We expect a good match here. Kazan has a dangerous team. Something will just be visible. Although with Zenit, Loko showed that he is ready to play successfully on the road. And here there will be home stands expected to advance. It will not be an easy match for Lokomotiv. But Krasnodar is the favorite before this match: after all, they have their own platform and now they play with confidence,” Grigoriev told .
