Dimitris Itoudis, CSKA head coach:
Talking about Lopatin, I will say that he deserved his minutes today. Nothing is given here, Andrey works hard, he is focused, he learns all the time. As I said in recent interview, our young guy will get their chances… As for the game, we took it serious and we got the result needed. Now we pray for Jojo [Voigtmann], for his injury not to be serious.
