– The confrontation between CSKA and Zenit is a classic of Russian basketball. This is the sign and those matches that all the fans are looking forward to. I want to note the full hall of Megasport today. More than 10 thousand fans created an incredible atmosphere in the match.

In the game today, Zenit was stronger. We went out with great motivation – collected, configured. CSKA today did not work out as they planned. There were not enough points of Abramovich and Astapkovich. Melly tribble did everything he could, but he did not have enough support for partners who would bring additional points to the team. These matches always arouse special interest. It was interesting to see how Alexei Swede will show itself in this confrontation. I can say that he brought important glasses to his team today, gave excellent broadcasts, but for the perfect form he needs a little more time. The match was interesting, I hope all the fans enjoyed the pleasure of basketball, ”said Korstin“ Match TV ”

Zenit won 24 victory in 29 matches and takes third place in the standings, CSKA (24 victories, 5 lesions) – the first.
