Jelevich: “Sekulic missed training for the season. This could have a negative impact on his work at Zenit

Work in the Slovenian national team could have a negative impact on Alexander Sekulic’s results at Zenit, Honored Coach of Russia Sergei Yelevich told Match TV.

On Tuesday, Sekulic was suspended from his duties as head coach of Zenit. The team’s preparation for the match of the 22nd round of the regular season of the VTB United League against MBA-MAI will take place under the leadership of Maxim Uchaikin, who will temporarily serve as head coach, Zenit said in a statement.

– During the entire time that he was at Zenit, I did not see anything new and interesting in his activities. Maybe his assistants do not give him the opportunity to open up, although Sekulic is certainly a talented coach. It’s not for nothing that the Slovenian national team trusts him. But he missed a fairly large stage of preparation for the season due to work in the national team. It was necessary to prepare the team, but he was not there. This may have had a negative impact in the future.

Plus, sometimes it’s not so easy to find contact with players. You need to select a specific key for them. They are accomplished players and know their worth. Probably, the key could not be found. So all these points could have had an impact,” Elevich told Match TV.

Sekulic took charge of Zenit in June; the contract with the 47-year-old Slovenian specialist is for the 2025/26 season with the possibility of extension under the “1+1” scheme. Sekulic is also the head coach of the Slovenian national team.

Ukrainian basketball player: “I sleep in my clothes, my wife and cat keep me warm”

Ukrainian headquarters BC Dnepr Sergei Zagreb He talked about daily life on the Dnieper, where there was no electricity and heating. The basketball player admitted that he slept under several blankets but did not lose his optimism.

– How are the light and temperature on the Dnieper now?

– No light for 15-16 hours a day. They only give three hours during the day and one or two hours in the evening. I sleep under a few blankets with a jacket, pants and socks. My lovely wife and cat keep me warm.

We try to somehow get out of the situation: we go to a cafe where there is a generator and eat there. People adapt to everything, but I really want there to be no war and people to be smarter because everyone is suffering,” Sergei said.

Russia fully invaded Ukrainian territory on February 24, 2022. The enemy continues to attack military, industrial and civilian targets and kill military and civilians.
