The recovery after the away game against Nordsjaelland in Denmark was the key to CSKA's 2:0 victory over Ludogorets. This was stated by the coach of the “Reds“ Marcus Gizdol after the match.
“The key was our good recovery after the match in Denmark. We got home at 5-6 am on Friday. We recovered“, said the German coach. He praised the work of the medical staff and physiotherapists, who helped the players to come out on the pitch with full energy.
Gizdol described the match as difficult because of the individual class of Ludogorets. According to him, CSKA fulfilled the main tasks set before the match, thanks to high discipline and good press.
