European way led CSKA to Germany where our team will play Euroleague game against Brose Baskets. Bamberg does not have its own international airport, therefore Transaero Airlines Boeing landed in Nuremberg and army men spent almost an hour getting to the destination point.

Muscovites are very serious before the game against German champions. It is enough to recall the first meeting of the teams, in which visitors fought for three quarters. “Brose Baskets is a well-organized team which showed that it can play way better at home”, - CSKA head coach Jonas Kazlauskas said. – “So we expect the game to be difficult, especially taking into account that we did not have easy life in Moscow. I think we should play our basketball and stay focused for 40 minutes to win in Bamberg.”

Red-blues seriousness can be also confirmed by the fact that only two players stayed at home – Andrei Kirilenko and Darius Lavrinovic continue their rehabilitation after injuries. One ‘healthy scratch’ will be named by the head coach on a game day.
