CSKA hardly won the second game of the tour to Far East and Siberia. The rival – Sibirtelecom – was in the mood to take the win but the Army club managed to survive – 76-69.
SibirTelecom - CSKA: 69-76
Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
- The game was very tough. The rival showed good three points shooting percentage. We missed Papaloukas and Van Den Spiegel who suffers problem with his back. We did not receive the contribution from our bench. Only Pashutin and Kurbanov showed some good performance. But after the matches in Cologne and the game in Vladivostok we need every player to give his maximum to the team as our leaders are tired. Tomorrow we have the game in Surgut and I hope to get some help from the bench.
