Andreas Pistiolis, head coach of CSKA:

Congratulations to UNICS on the victory. Obviously, they wanted to win more today. We did not show proper respect to the opponent. Perhaps this was the team’s softest game since I took charge here. We were not prepared mentally. Before the start of the series, I warned that the Kazan team would punish for every mistake. And we have made too many such mistakes today.
