Andreas Pistiolis, CSKA head coach:

Congratulations to UNICS on their victory. Thanks also to the CSKA fans who came to Kazan; their support is incredibly important to us. I'd also like to highlight the UNICS fans, who created a fantastic atmosphere. Ultimately, we lost due to our own mistakes, especially in the decisive moments. But even if we had won today, I wouldn't have been satisfied with the quality of basketball we played. We committed more turnovers than assists today. This is especially disappointing because it happened in such an important game. We need to learn the right lessons. We have a long season ahead, and UNICS is one of our main rivals, whom we'll face many more times. We need to be more focused in the next game.
