CSKA – UNICS Kazan: 74-59
Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
- I am very glad and very tired. Very complex game today has stood out. I wish to congratulate my players on the victory! They have stood the 48 hours marathon, having played against two good, but such different teams. Today my players have once again appeared more artfully and more smart to find a key to each of contenders. I am very glad for those players who have received individual prizes. But much more I am happy to that we have won the Cup of Russia.
