CSKA winning series in Russian Superleague continued in Rostov-on-Don. Without Ettore Messina our team fought hard to defeat Lokomotiv.

Lokomotiv Rostov vs. CSKA: 63-75

Dmitry Shakulin:

"We prepared for the game very carefully, studied the strongest sides of Lokomotiv, but the hosts tried hard, they were fighting until the end. That is why we came up with the victory only in closing seconds. In the beginning we were stuck in slow game, we allowed three long three-pointers, almost from 8 meters each, but we finally managed to show our basketball."
