With victory from Surgut

Today Triumph overplayed Universitet Surgut on the road in the Russian championship - 84:69.
BC Triumph Head Coach Stanislav Eremin commneted on the game:
- I'm satisfied with our result tonight. It's rather difficult to play in Surgut, and also Universitet showed good basketball in its last games. I'm satisfied with how my team started the game, players were concentrated on the game, were desiring to win, they were fighting for the victory.
It was very important moment when we took the lead in the first half and the rivals couldn't find their game. Thanks to our advantage after first two quarters were playing more confidently after the big break.
In my opinion, the key moment was in the third quarter when Universitet was successful in some three-point shots in a row. We stopped the attacks and were good in offense. Toporov, Dmitriev, Sergeev, Bremer were good in shots...
In general, we showed rather high percentage of three-point shots and it was the key moment in the game. I think that every player today made a big role for the victory tonight.
It was a very important victory for us before the games in the Russian Cup Final Four.
