Xavi Sabaté: Congratulations to Paris for the win and for qualifying to the final. I feel like we were the better team and we would have deserved to win. Their 3 goals lead came from fast breaks after our mistakes. We are disappointed although we lost to a great team. I am proud of my team because we have a very tough season behind us and despite that fact we managed to stand our grounds in 3 competitions. But if we miss clear chances against a team like Paris and luck is not on our side either then it ends in a loss. We will do our best in the bronze game tomorrow.

 

Gasper Marguc: We are very disappointed. It was a close and tough game. In the end game PSG was the luckier team and they may have been focuing better. We played well but missed a lot of chances. We have to regenerate and try to win the 3rd place tomorrow.

 

 

Zvonimir Serdarusic: As a coach I am very happy that we have won this game where there was power handball for 60 minutes. We had a 3 goals lead but the game still remained close. The most important thing is that we have a chance to win the Champions League tomorrow.

 

Luka Karabatic: I am very happy because this will be my and the team's first final. We will try to achieve something big tomorrow. We have to prepare well and quickly for the next game.
