Off to Rostov

After today’s afternoon practice, the entire CSKA roster left on the team bus to the airport, where they boarded a charter flight for their trip to Rostov for the third quarterfinal game in the Russian Championship playoffs
against Lokomotiv from Mineranye Body. Forwards Sergei Panov and Darius Songaila talked about the upcoming game.

Sergei Panov:

Only the weather can stop us (laughs). Of course, we’re going to give it our all. You should expect anything less from our team. But Lokomotiv has no chance.

Darius Songaila:

I think that after the two losses in Moscow, Lokomotiv will try to play better. But we’re ready for that. Which player could be dangerous? Any of them, really. Almost all of the players are young. You never know what to expect from them. We just need to play our game.
