Full power – for the Cup

For the second straight year our team starts playing in Russian Cup Final Four with the game against UNICS Kazan.

Differently from what happened a year ago CSKA will play the deciding games with the full roster. As team’s head coach Ettore Messina mentioned, Trajan Langdon who missed the previous game of Russian League because of hip concussion will surely play in the game against Kazan. Messina himself is recovering from cold and already directs the team during practices.

“The very important time has come, - Messina said. We will play for the first title of the season, so we have to be extremely prepared. We expect very difficult game against UNICS Kazan which is good and dangerous team.”

Second semifinal will feature Triumph Lyubertsy and Dynamo Moscow.
