Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:

Congratulations to my team with away victory against ambitious opponent. Darussafaka proves its ambitions with offseason and recent moves, with new arena and great fan support. We were a better team today but we did not respect ourselves in the last quarter, we did not respect the margin we created earlier. We let the opponents to score easy baskets, turned the ball over too often. We have to fight even when we miss some leading players. We have to watch the video to find out why we made so many mistakes in the first and fourth quarters. Still we believe in our goals and we will play better.
