    Dusko Vujosevic, Montenegro coach:

    "It was a good win, not a great win. We can play much better. But the Dutch played very well and gave us no easy baskets. Because they defended in a very compact way, we knew we would have some chances beyond the arc. It was good Goran Jeretin hit his shots. Qualfying for Division A now is very important to us. We don't want to lose two more years before we can compete with Europe's top teams."

    Gadi Kedar, Netherlands coach:

    "Congratulations to our opponents. Montenegro are a very good team. They will reach the top five of Europe within a couple of years. They deserved to win. But I am very proud of my players. The worked very hard, with great enthousiam and were at the top of their game. We had some bad luck with our three-point shots, they were more lucky. It looks like we have to focus on the second spot in our group. Something we will do with great passion."
