Emil Rajkovic, CSKA head coach:
It turned out to be difficult, as we expected. Parma is a very good team, there was a great atmosphere in the gym, which helped the hosts. In the second half, we got better defensively, controlled the rebounds, and at key moments we had higher-level players on the court, such as Aleksey Shved, who could decide the outcome of the episode.
