Ljubomir Vranjes: I think we played really good. I think we played with focus, discipline and I think my team showed professionalism from the first minute until the last. I really liked that. Everybody thinks that it is so easy to play against teams where you know that you are going to win. It is not that easy. You have to be able to come to a level that is hard for the players sometimes because they have such tough games in the Champions League where you know that if you do not go 100% you are not going to win. I think that is bad. I cannot say anything negative about how they performed today. I think everybody play expect Mikler. All the others showed me that they wanted to play and as a coach for me, it is really important. It does not matter what stands on the scoreboard at the end. I wish Budakalász more points against Szeged. Good luck in the future.
Cristian Ugalde: We are happy because all the games are important for us, for improvement for the defense and to be able to run. We knew we have to fight and win today, they played a draw in Szeged last week so we had to be focused. We did not want any surprise. We must play 200% in every game, we just did that today, and we are satisfied with the game.
Gyula Forgács: Congratulations to Veszprém. I can say this in the name of our team that we are thankful they took this game seriously. They honored us with that mentality which I hope we deserved by playing a draw in Szeged. This is how it should be. Our mistakes came out and the difference between the two teams showed the level they play in. We have to learn from that. This team is the same team that is going to play in Saturday. We are not used to the Wednesday-Saturday rhythm while our more important game will be on Saturday. Naturally, this is not the reason for our loss, this is the reasonable difference between the teams. If we would have been complete we also would have been beaten that much. It was great that they took us seriously. I think this difference is legit.
Benjámin Sinkovits: Congratulations to our opponent. This game was not so important for us today, we are rather preparing for Komló for Saturday. Today’s game was good for us to practice our plays and those, which worked here, will probably work against Komló as well.
