David Davis: It was a difficult game today, and Balatonfüred played really well, while we did not. We lacked concentration. This is our 44th game this season, and it is not easy to focus, and not have your head around upcoming challenges. Congratulations to Balatonfüred and good luck to them for the rest of the season.
 
Zoran Ilic: Congratulations to Balatonfüred for the close game. I would like to thank coach Davis for the opportunity in such an even game. Good luck to Balatonfüred in the future.

 

 
István Csoknyai: Congratulations to Veszprém for the deserved victory. They are in front of a long and tough road with the Hungarian Cup Final4, SEHA League Final4 and the games against Szeged. My team deserves a bit pat of the shoulder as well, because they played good handball for 60 minutes. Bősz and Topic were outstanding today. The partial tasks we set up for ourselves today were fulfilled, which was mainly to not let Veszprém lead counter attacks. We scored a lot of goals, and our balance was good as well. We wanted to cause a bigger surprise but experience won today. For us, next week’s clash against Ferencváros is the main target.
 
Bence Zdolik: Congratulations to Veszprém. We played a close game with them, where we were even for 50 minutes. From now on, we prepare for the clash against Ferencváros, where I hope we can show this side of our faces from today. Good luck to Veszprém.
