Emil Rajkovic, CSKA head coach:

Today we used all the players, most of them played good defense, especially in the second half. It’s nice to beat such an opponent, who has been playing good basketball this season, because Astana beat Nizhny, confidently defeated Avtodor, and fought to the end with Zenit. That's why we took the game seriously, and it paid off.
