Asparuh Nikodimov shared his thoughts on CSKA’s clash with Basel today. This is what the legend of the “reds” says in “Topic: Sports”:

CSKA have no time for changes after the loss to Loko (Pd) at the weekend. Tonight they have to think with their heads and in the game itself we have to act very carefully and not make naive mistakes like those in Plovdiv. The defeat of “Lauta” should have been forgotten, it can be fixed, but a defeat in Switzerland today is not. So you have to throw everything in this game. The two parties have nothing in common. different.

At St. Jacob Park, CSKA has all the prerequisites to play a different match than Lauta. Under the hills were the mistakes of Matei and Antov, but this does not mean that only the two are to blame for the defeat. They were the direct culprits of the goals, but in general the whole team did not function properly. There was no rationality, no sharpness. But you can’t always be perfect in sports.

Today they have to go out and offer a fierce battle to Basel, to pressure them, there is no place to wait for them. The objective is to score goals. If they wait 0: 0 and there will be no penalties.

October 1 is a wonderful date for CSKA, I hope it's the same today!

On this day, the “reds” defeated Levski and achieved a historic victory in Europe.

It is important that Basel is put under pressure, that’s right. Sometimes things can happen with a more defensive game, if you are lucky: the opponent hits the beams, loses positions. That works too. But if CSKA has decided to dodge the whole match, in the end it will become the story of the cunning magpie with both legs. The first minutes will be very important. The team must start the match with confidence, without worry, because any damage at the beginning will be difficult to compensate against such a mature opponent as Basel.

It is somewhat a plus that the “Army” does not enter as a favorite in the game. But the rival is not Barcelona or Man City. They have nothing to fear. They go out to play, in this match a great economic bonus is decided, there is a lot at stake. If the Swiss are better and CSKA loses, nothing terrible will happen. There can be no tragedies from this match, you can only win.

They have to play confidently and fight. There is no way for a player to “hide” here, he needs to play until his legs stiffen. There is no other situation. It’s clear who should lead the team, as the old cliché goes, “the captain and the center forward.” But in a game like this everyone is important, in a battle like this, if there are one or two to play below their level, it will not work.

Look what she is

As a success in historical terms, CSKA is ahead of Basel, but currently it is not. That’s why all the players have to play their best game of the year. They showed against Ludogorets that to some extent they can handle this way of playing, now they only have to repeat it, avoiding gross errors on the defensive level and showing greater efficiency in front of goal.

The fact that Basel lost the weekend to Servette and got off to a bad start in the championship is no indication. These matches don’t count, and here in European tournaments every match is decisive. It doesn’t matter that they lost. The Swiss have already forgotten the defeat and do not attach as much importance to a championship defeat as in Bulgaria. Here tragedies are made, the coaches change, etc. In Switzerland, they look at things in a completely different way, they turn their backs on what happened yesterday and try to be better today.

CSKA can do it. Attention and forward! ”, Paro commented to the publication.
