POST-GAME

Rimas Kurtinaitis, Khimki Moscow Region head coach:

“The game didn’t go the way we hoped early on, but we still managed to shift the momentum in the game and secure a win with a huge effort. Now we get to play in the EuroLeague next season. But the season is not over yet. We enjoyed a very big win, but like my comrade said, it’s getting darker, but it’s not evening yet. To be honest, I really counted on a win today and tried to convey to the players that going back to Kazan for another game would be a very tough path. I’m happy we managed to do it”.
