Oleg Kiselev: «There was no proper energy and toughness in defense»

Astana head coach Oleg Kiselev commented on the result of the match against Samara.

- There isn't much to say. We made a poor field goal percentage, but the defense was a disaster today. There was not that energy and toughness in defense, which should have been in such games with such an opponent. Tomorrow we have a debriefing; there is little time because, on the 7th, we are already playing with Zenit. Therefore, we will draw conclusions, and on Saturday, we will try to play differently.

I would like to congratulate the opponent on the victory; they played well. They had a rather difficult period, but today they looked like one team.
