With the crucial game against the Greek powerhouse coming up, Pavel Astakhov explained the whole situation and why the fine which was initially imposed, was recalled.
Speaking to Russian newspaper “Izvestia“, the general manager of Khimki said: “It’s true that the fined was recalled. From the first moment I have said that if the team changed its attitude, there will be no penalties. My task is not to fine, but to motivate the team. To be honest, on the contrary, I want to pay players a bonus for winning. Therefore, everything is in order, the guys gave it all”.
And while Alexey Shved who missed the recent VTB All-Star game due to an ankle injury is still considered day-to-day, it seems that he will be able to play against Panathinaikos.
