Zenit won the Russian Cup for the first time ever!

The Russian Cup reached its culmination on Sunday, March 17. On this day, Zenit and Pari Nizhny Novgorod faced each other in the final game — teams that had not suffered a single defeat in this edition of the national cup, as well as teams that had met in the final of the previous season.

In this match, Zenit quickly gained a slight advantage, which they increased by halftime. In the third quarter, the team from Nizhny Novgorod narrowed the gap by 2 points, and throughout the last 10 minutes, they tried to catch up with our team, but ultimately could not do so.

Zenit wins the Russian Cup for the first time in its history!
