Ljubomir Vranjes: Thank you, Csurgó for the good game. We had a great match. We had moments where we played well and also moments where we had to improve. I liked that everybody could play. We are not on the peek and we need a couple more days. We have to run more and give more pressure on goal. Our defense was good all the game, also with Nenadic in the middle at 5-1, but we still have stuff to improve.

 

László Nagy: We did not have a problem with the number of the goals. We conceded a bit more goals from the center back position than we wanted. We had a 6-8 minutes goal drought but I think we were all right in attack and defense as well. Csurgó held themselves well in attack. We tried to defend well and aggressively, and then play with fast breaks. We did just that. We would like to continue on that road this season.

 

 

József Bencze: I think it is hard to start the championship in Veszprém, and this factor showed itself. We could held ourselves well for 40-45 minutes on that 7-8 goals that we would have excepted for the final result. We made 16 technical mistakes, and this tall and wide Veszprém defense broke our game to pieces. Those tactical elements that we practiced in the preparation games did not work here because of this. We continue on Sunday against Mezőkövesd, where we would like to turn the game to our favor. Congratulations to Veszprém and good luck for them for the season.

 

Attila Tóth: Congratulations to Veszprém, we played a good game. We were head-to-head in the first half, but as we got exhausted, the team was shaken mentally and physically. We went out to the second period fresher, but their 5-1 defense broke our system. It was hard to attack against it. It was a good preparation game for us; we have to learn from that. We will try to perform better and we will see what happens.
