Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
First, I would like to congratulate football team with Russian League title, personally Leonid Slutskiy, Evgeny Giner, all players and fans of big Army Men family. The day between the games let us rest, acclimatize, correct our mistakes. We played with better pace, defended and rebounded better. Khimki have talented team with high-quality performers, and we allowed them to come closer several times. Still we are up 2-0 and we need one more win. As I said already, we want to be in the final, to defend our title. Thank you to the fans who came here today. I know that important football and ice hockey games were played today, but we still had our gym almost full and the support was felt. We tried to please our fans and score 100 points. Unfortunately we failed but still I am sure that the fans liked the outcome.
