The win in Istanbul was not pretty but important - now CSKA almost assured the first place in the group D (Real's chances stay theoretical). Great defense and three-pointers by "aborigenal" Langdon - that's the main memories from the game.
Efes Pilsen vs. CSKA: 55-74
Ettore Messina:
“Obviously we are happy with the win and especially with the play in the second half. We showed good effort on defense and good ball movement which allowed to find some space for our best shooter. We played together and what is important we were the full team for the first time this year. Now we have the first place but it does not mean anything – except for the confidence”.
