Quotes

Sasa Obradovic, Head Coach of PBC Lokomotiv Kuban:

- First of all, I think we deserve the win. Most of the game, we played better than them. We troubled our opponent a lot today. But it’s always hard to play in Perm, especially in our physical conditions and our rhythm, it was even harder. Congratulations to our team.
