Xavi Pascual: "We were a little bit soft defensively at the start of the game"
January 8, 2025
Zenit head coach Xavi Pascual summed up the results of the away match against Samara (54:103).
— First of all, I want to wish all the best to Samara until the end of the season. One game that from the beginning we tried to be okay defensively and offensively. In the first 5 minutes the game was equal because we were a little bit soft defensively. But step by step we started to dominate the rhythm of the game, we took this big advantage until the end.
