"We already knew that it would be a very difficult game as Aris is a very good team which is playing very well. I also believe that we made the game more complicated, with the bad start in the second half time and we lost many shots. We have to be more adaptable in the next games. Today, although we have a problem with the playmaker, we played very well and I'm very satisfied because we beat a good team. "
On behalf of Panathinaikos players James Gist said: "I want to congratulate Aris team who came here and played such a tough game. This game gave us the opportunity to see how we could play despite the injury problems. Now we are concentrating on the game against Barcelona on which we want to see how we can oppose this team ".
