Russian club on track for Euroleague basketball final

Published 13 December, 2007, 13:48

Russian basketball club CSKA remains on course to make the final of the Euroleague for the third straight year following a 32 point rout of Polish outfit, Prokom – their fifth win in a row on the continent.

It leaves the Moscow men with a runaway lead at the top of Group.

David Andersen sparked an 8-zero run late in the second quarter with back-to-back dunks – Prokom finding it hard to deal with the rangy Australian all night.

He top-scored for the red and blue with 17 points, but it was all in all a team effort for Ettore Messina's men, with six players finishing in double figures.

The final quarter was a mere formality, with CSKA falling just a point shy of breaking the century mark, 99-67 the final score.
