Oleg Kiselev, the head coach of «Astana,» commented on the game in Saint Petersburg.

«When you let your opponent take 20 offensive rebounds, defense becomes irrelevant. A basketball truth played out — whoever wins the rebounding wins the game. «Zenit,» leveraging their size superiority, dominated us by securing 20 additional possessions. That was the main reason for their victory. There were certain moments in our offense as well, but they didn't have a significant impact.

We have a short rotation but are expanding it in recent matches. It's impossible to play with just six players in a tight schedule.»
