Guerschon Yabusele, Real Madrid: 'It was a great game'

Chus Mateo, Real Madrid head coach
"It is not so easy to keep the intensity when you have a big lead. We tried our best, but in our minds, we are going to play in two days [on the road at AS Monaco] and we controlled the score. This is the thing. Monaco is a great team, they are towards the top of the standings, they are a physical team that plays with energy. We've got to be aware of this energy. They play a lot of one-on-one. They are very, very good. We lost here at home [against them]; we need to win there."
Dejan Radonjic, Panathinaikos Athens head coach
"Congrats to Real, they played better than us, of course. From the beginning, they had a big lead and they controlled the game after that. We need to play much, much better in the next game [at Cazoo Baskonia Vitoria-Gasteiz]."
Guerschon Yabusele, Real Madrid forward
"I had a good start. My teammates got me going and the energy just won it. It was a great game. We were focused from the first minute. We knew that it was a tough game and we needed to set the tone from the beginning. We did it tonight, and the most important thing is the win."
Dzanan Musa, Real Madrid forward
"It's always good to start the games good. We know that they have a very talented team, on offense especially. We tried to focus our game on the defense, which we did, and I'm very proud of the team's performance. Now, we're going to prepare for the Monaco game, which is very important for us."
