Zenit vs Loko Kuban. Bronze series preview. Game 2
The situation is such that the upcoming match-up may be the last home game of the current season for the blue-whites. Depending on the result of the second meeting, it will become clear how many games will be needed in Krasnodar — one or two; but, regardless of the outcome of the meeting, there is a possibility that the series will not return to St. Petersburg. This means that the team will need noisy support, because that is what we will remember all summer.
As for the game, the first match was not easy. Zenit led for most of the playing time, but in the last quarter they almost missed the victory — it took the heroics of Frazier and Hunter, and then Zakharov's bucket, which eventually became decisive. Anyway, the victory did not come easily, and obviously the second game will not be an easy walk either.
Zenit is approaching this game with several injured players in the squad, however, not everything is so simple in the Lokomotiv roster: Maurice Ndour was injured at the end of the first meeting, and it is not yet clear how serious it is; Okaro White was removed from the court, and we still do not know what punishment he will receive for excessive aggression towards referees. In any case, no matter which teams approach the second match, it is obvious that it will be really hot.
Tickets for Game 2 are on sale. Go Zenit!
