Bálint Kilvinger: "It seems that a young team was our guest. They are doing a very good job, we made more mistakes in the first half. In the second half, we conceded fewer quick goals, and our defense became solid. This was the key that allowed us to play more freely. I'm glad that such a large number of people came to the match."
Levente Hári: "I would like to congratulate the NEKA team, they were a very tough opponent. We prepared for this as well. I think our defense hardened in the second half. Thanks to our routine, we managed to win the match."
