Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
- I am very happy with the game. Khimki had a perfect record in Russian championship up to today. All our players were extremely concentrated today. We got the perfect game and the leadership from J.R.Holden, who helped us to control the rhythm. It was the point. Khimki is extremely dangerous when they can play fast. We are back home satisfied but we know we have a very long road with the games when we would be missing Savrasenko and Smodis.
