KK Kumanovo 2009 defeated BC Rilski Sportist at home and here are some quotes after the game:
 
Igor Mihajlovski, head coach of KK Kumanovo 2009: "First I want to thank the fans. I think we were a little bit tired but we are well prepared. The team of Rilski is good and experienced team and has quality players in all positions. The game was hard for both teams as the stakes were the first place in the group for the moment."
 
Aleksandar Kostoski, player of KK Kumanovo 2009: "If we look at the score we can say the game was won by the offense. However to win a game you also need to play defense. I think we deserved to win. It could have been with bigger difference but now we are first and we are happy. So far we are showing that in the last quarter we are more dominant than the others. I hope it will be like this until the end and the fourth quarter will bring us more luck than to the other team. However we need to play all four quarters because the games are hard and if you don′t you will lose."
 
 
Rosen Barchovski, head coach of BC Rilski Sportist: "It′s simple. The first half we didn′t play good defense and we made a lot of mistakes. In the second half we let Kumanovo to go 18 points ahead which is a lot, but we still cut the deficit to 1. Then twice they scored two important triples which is a luck and you can′t do nothing. However to let your host lead by 18 points is too much and then it′s hard to win. I think our defense was weak for a long period. The key moment were two important triples by Kostoski and one by Janeski near the end. These were some micro-situations which we couldn′t answer."
 
Yordan Bozov, player of BC Rilski Sportist: "I think it was a good and high scoring game for which I think the reason was that the team played a lot of zone defense. We expected Kumanovo to play zone but we couldn′t stop their good offense. I think that our defense wasn′t at the level need to win in Kumanovo. We had a good third quarter and we managed to stop them few times and then made some triples. This is our style of play but in the fourth we didn′t managed to stop their pick & roll and the open shots it created."
