BC Lokomotiv-Kuban lost to Uralmash in the first game of the Russian Cup quarterfinals

Kuban basketball Lokomotiv lost the first match of the quarter finals to Uralmash from Yekaterinburg. The score of the meeting was 80:67 in favor of the Urals.

In this match, everything turned out very badly for Loko. There was little progress in the attack, and there were gaping holes in the defense. By the big break, the team from the capital of the Urals was already leading by nine goals. However, the “railroad workers” have already taught their fans this season that they can win back even more of the gap. But not at this time. In the third quarter, however, “the red-greens imposed a semblance of a fight on their opponent, but they ultimately lost that too. In the final quarter of the match, the Ural team controlled the course of the match that had turned out so well for them and brought it to a logical victory.

Of course, a loss of 13 points is not a death sentence for Lokomotiv, but the meeting left an unpleasant aftertaste for the fans. The Krasnodar team will rehabilitate themselves and try to get a ticket to the Final Four of the National Cup in the home match, which will take place on February 7.
