Spartak St.Petersburg vs. CSKA: 78-88 (+10)
Jonas Kazlauskas, CSKA head coach:
We controlled the game from the very beginning but it was not easy. Spartak is a high-level team with good coaches and game organization. Besides, they are inconvenient rivals for us – they shoot well from a perimeter, which makes it difficult for us to use our big men, Beverley is very difficult to defend. But we played disciplined and won. Andrey Kirilenko wanted to show himself in front of full stands, in his native city. I think he can play like this in every game. But we have a number of good players, everyone can score, and we ride Andrey tonight. I’d like to single out Zhenya Voronov who stopped Beverley on defense and helped our leaders.
