Today in Astana, in the hall of the republican cycling track "Saryarka", the next match of the Kazakhstan Basketball Championship among men's teams of the national League took place

05.02.2014

Basketball players of “Astana” hosted the Aktau club “Caspiy” on the floor. Let us remind you that this is the 5th meeting of the teams this season. The previous matches were confidently won by Astana (100:57, 83:65, 99:95, 87:73).

Today's match also did not become a sensation.

Aleksandar Trifunovic's team did not relax after successful games in the VTB League and demonstrated a fighting spirit on the court.

True, not the entire squad took part in the match; the injured Brion Rush and Andrija Zizic, who was given a rest, watched the game in the stands.

The scoring in the match was opened by the guests. In response to this, Anatoly Kolesnikov brought his team 2 points. This was followed by successful attacks by the Astana team. The first ten minutes of the game ended with a score of 29:17 in favor of Astana.

The second period of the match was more active. Both teams tried to show a beautiful game, which, in principle, worked out. But the 10-point limit, which was set by Astana at the beginning of the match, remained until the end of the first half of the meeting - 42:27.

The next two periods of the match were also competitive. Janis Blooms delighted the fans with his signature three-pointers, and David Simon demonstrated spectacular blocked shots. Former Caspian player and now the capital's powerful forward Vitaly Lapchenko showed a good game.
