Ljubomir Vranjes: I am glad that we won the two points. I think they got us in a trap. They played slowly. We wanted to run but they played slowly. The referees let them play slow. I do not like slow. Everybody expected us to win and we did but I do not like the way we won today. We can do much better and next time we will. We trained a bit harder this week but it should not have been visible in our game. We will do much better next time.
William Accambray: It was important to win today. All games are important. We need to respect the rules, and we try to respect it, but today they were not really for us. We played good, but next time we have to be better. We have matches in approximately every 4th day. On the weekend we will have a very important game against Kiel that we would like to win and stay at the 1st place of our group.
Tóth Edmond: Congratulations to Veszprém, they played on their own level and we also tried to find a use for this game. We succeeded a bit. It is hard to attack against such a good defense. Veszprém played what they wanted and scored easy goals. We got a lot of goals from counter attacks and even though we prepared for them we could not stop them. I think the first half did not go the way we wanted to but we could hold ourselves in the second period better and the result turned out to be legit.
Dániel Füzi: Congratulations to Veszprém. I was a bit under pressure to play against Veszprém in a different jersey, but I overcame it. On the second half we were playing better. We have to beat the teams that are at the same level as us and we are quite good at it. But as you could see we still have to improve.
