Tomorrow game between CSKA and Ural Great can’t change anything in the tournament standings. Will this game be principal for you?
- The prestige of the club and victories are important for me. Every winning game is going to the bank of the team in the moral plan also. It is prestigious to defeat CSKA. This game will become answer for our fans what is Ural-Great now and what does the team can. Games like this are shows the level of the team.
How can you explain you lose to Lokomotiv Rostov?
- The first reason is our problem with Abdul-Rauf, who did not play in last games. He is injured; he could not come to Moscow for tomorrow game. So, there were several reasons of those lose. We has fight, but shown not our best game. But it is not true that we simply present this victory to Rostov team.
Ural-Great is third after the regular season of Superleague. Does it conform to your plans?
- We got into difficulties after our lose in Saratov in the beginning of the season. Then we lose to CSKA in Perm. If we could win back losing Kazan points in the second game against UNICS we had some chances. But third place is not tragedy for me. All will depend on level of the teams in play-off.
How can you defeat CSKA tomorrow?
- Our players must not show something special. They only shall to solve their problems on the parquet. We need collective, team play. We did not show it often this season because of the substitutions of players. All players must follow coaching staff tactic. We need shave discipline.
