Vladislav Trushkin has been playing for the MBA-MAI for the second season, but he did not forget the Krasnoyarsk rims — the game began with three consecutive long-range shots made by our forward. However, the Enisey responded to the rush of the red and white with its own - 19-4. The Moscow team did not allow them to break away further and reduced the opening quarter to a draw, 21:21.
For a long time in the second ten-minute period, there was a close struggle, the teams traded effective shots, but towards the end of the first half, Enisey organized another sprint and went to the locker room with a +7 lead.
After the break, MBA-MAI couldn't get close to their opponent for a long time, but in a difficult moment, Vladislav Trushkin once again showed his worth - his two three-pointers allowed our team to reduce the deficit to a minimum, and keep it to the final period.
At the start of the fourth quarter, after another long-range shot made by Trushkin, MBA-MAI took the lead for the first time in a while. Vlad also managed to help in defence - by the end of the game, he had 5 interceptions. The main problem for the Moscow team was with free throws: our team made only slightly more than 60% from the line. Despite this, our team was still leading at the final minute, but by only one point.
45 seconds before the final buzzer, Enisey took the lead again. The end turned into a game of mistakes - sometimes the ball would just pop out of the players' hands for no reason. With 6 seconds left, Vladislav Trushkin made one more long-range shot and tied the score. It looked like overtime was unavoidable, but the final word went to the hosts - Sergey Balashov broke free from defense and scored crucial 2 points. The final score - 78-76 for Enisey.
