Recall that Zenit won in straight sets.
Vladimir Alekno, head coach of Zenit:
“In the Playoffs it’s all about result, but today I am very pleased of the quality of our game. This is just the first step, everything will be decided next week in the rematch. I am sure that the game in Ankara will be much more challenging for us. Also, I must say that without Osmany Juantorena, HalkBank is simply a totally different team.”
Lorenzo Bernardi, head coach of Halkbank:
“It is difficult to play against Zenit even if you make only three errors in the game. And, today we made more than 30. In general, we’ve lost the match even before it started. I did not like the attitude of my players, they did not believe in themselves. We need to change that before the second leg.”
