I’m proud of my team and we hope to do better tomorrow and in the next matches. We couldn’t have a better performance. Also, we will try to recover for tomorrow to win against the Polish Team."
Vladimir Alenko, coach of Zenit Kazan: “We are happy to win this game. We hope to play better tomorrow. I believe we played well but because this was the first game it was not easy.”
