PBC CSKA
For the first time in more than 4 years Moscow meets the most titled European club. The battle of CSKA and Real happens during the deciding stage of the Top 16 and it will become the important part of fight for the leadership in Group E.
“It will be another tough game against a very strong opponent”, CSKA head coach Ettore Messina said. “We have to defend their screens, make a good effort on the rebounding and pay attention to the details. Hopefully we will be able to avoid mistakes, move the ball well and to show good basketball which we demonstrate recently. We prepare well, we are having good practices so I hope to continue with the same effort during the game.”
The preparation has nothing special, no army men are ill or injured. At the same time the club's preparations are very intense. First, the game is named the Game of the Week by Euroleague and therefore it will start later than usual. Second, the halftime activities will feature the retirement ceremony for the heralded club's veterans Armenak Alachachan, Vladimir Andreev and Anatoly Astakhov. Come to the game to greet the legendary CSKA players!
