CSKA vs. Triumph: 89-78
Ettore Messina, CSKA head coach:
- We are missing a lot of players but the rest of the team gave maximum effort to the game. It was a chance for CSKA and Triumph to get ready for the future games because the result of this one was not important for both of the teams and it was clear from the very start.
