Our team is back on the winning way in Russian Superleague defeating Triumph in difficult game thanks to the great second half.
Triumph vs. CSKA: 65-78
Evgeny Pashutin, CSKA head coach:
“It is always difficult to play in Lyubertsy. Stanislav Eremin is a great coach, and his team gets into fight on the edge of foul. We lost control in the second quarter, started to play fast basketball which suites Triumph more. We were able to stop opponents after the break, started to defend better, to show the real CSKA game without quick shots and bad passes. We did not use our bench much today because our starters played well. We work a lot to improve our reserves’ game. We reached our goal to stop Rush and Miller, made other Triumph players to make plays more and it worked out.”
