Xavi Sabaté: I congratulate the home team and their fans, who cheered fantastically and fairly throughout the whole game. I also congratulate my own team. I feel that we are getting better and better. Of course, we do not give 100% yet, but we do not have to at this time. We have a lot to do but I am happy because the team fights hard on every matches. There is nothing wrong with making mistakes now, it is totally normal. We have to fix these. I also congratulate the young players who were on the court today because they are really important to us, they are the future. I am glad that they are performing better.
Máté Lékai: I congratulate Mezőkövesd. We are glad that we could play this game. We made mistakes today but from step to step we have to correct them. It is important to be on our top form for the Champions League matches. Congratulations to our young players’ performance. Thanks to the home fans and I wish good luck to Mezőkövesd for the next season.
Ferenc Molnár: Congratulations for Veszprém’s victory. The part of the season, which will bring the real challenge will start in 3 weeks. Until that we have a lot of time so we will have the time to fix the mistakes. As for the attempts, we have to straighten up the minds of some players. We had better and worse moments also. I am a little annoyed because it might have been tighter but this difference is realistic. I am happy that we could play against each other and that we could serve the fans.
Roland Kiss: I congratulate Veszprém for the victory. This match was not the standard one for us, the real challenges will start in three weeks. Thanks to the fans, they helped a lot during the match. I tried not to deal with who is on the court in front of me or in the goal. I just tried to give my best.
