Emil Rajkovic, CSKA head coach:

I think it’s obvious that Astana showed some improvement in comparison to the first part of the season, they play better basketball now. For us it was an opportunity to have just another test before the second part of the season and the next game against Zenit. Most importantly, all our guys are healthy and in shape.
