Rostov head coach Oleg Meleschenko:

"First of all I want to thank our fans who supported us very strongly in this game. We always play for them. I think my team played well. Surely we made some mistakes but now I don’t want to speak about them. BC Barons showed good and interesting basketball. This game was very important for us as it is the first in the Qualifying Round. It’s a well known proverb; well begun is half done.
 
Valentin Kubrakov Rostov captain:

"The game was really very difficult. The first half of the game ended with the score 38-35, but the first period we really lost. It was the main mistake of our team."
