CSKA-Trinta - Khimki-3: 85-86
Andrei Maltsev, CSKA-Trinta head coach:
- We started the game well and by the half time we were ahead 45-31. But after the break the rival out a pressure on us and we started to experience problems with the personal fouls. Anatoly Kashirov left the court with five fouls Khimki-3 took advantage under the boards and we started to face problems in the defense. The rival showed some passion and motivation to the game and scored 33 points in just one quarter. We were finishing game without our two guards Dmitry Golovin and Maxim Zakharov. Besides, Alexander Morozov got injured in the 3rd quarter. I expected better play from our reserve, but it never happened.
