Dynamo Moscow – CSKA: 56-75
Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
- CSKA played smart. I should notice, that in a semifinal we played one of the eight best teams in Europe. Both teams tried to play entertainment basketball, and I think did it. All players defended on the good level. I shall note good interaction and pass. Today the high percentage was reached by a very good pass. I am very happy with that my team has appeared to be ready for this game.
