Xavi Sabaté: Congratulations to Zaporozhye for their matches in Ukraine and here in Veszprém. The key for us was in our defense, in the first ten minutes they played very good with tactics we have not seen before from them but after that our defense became stronger and we scored a lot of fast break goals. László Nagy, Mirsad Terzc and Mirko Alilovic were fantastic. I am very happy because we are in the best form so far. In attack we had the best Palmarsson this season. We have 9 weeks left and we will try to be better in every aspect. Congratulation to Péter Gulyás because he came back very good from an injury, he is an important player for us and I hope forhisa contract extension. Thanks you for our fans because they were fantastic, we have only one game left in the Champions League at home, we were happy that we could entertain them the way they deserve.
Péter Gulyás: Congratulations to Zaporozhye because we played two very dynamic games. I am very happy to play as much as I could in both of my positions, and I really hope to get back to my previous form. I would like to thank our fans for the support, there are not many games left so we are happy to play in an environment like this.
Mykola Stepanets: First of all we want to congratulate Veszprém. We came here with a 5 goal deficit. We started good but Veszpém’s goalkeeper was saving excellent today, we received such a big gap against a great team that we could not come back from that. We tried to come close in the second half but Veszprém took advantage of our mistakes and the gap got even bigger. Our players tried to fight until the last second and we are sure they will use their experience in the future.
Gennadiy Komok: First of all congratulation to Veszprém. As for the match, it was difficult for us against the strongest opponent. We analyzed the matches but we struggled against a great team.
