Bartosz Grzelak:
“We knew we would have a tough start to the season at Újpest, but I still feel that we made Újpest look a bit better. Don't get me wrong, they are a good team, but we respected them too much, we gave them the first forty-five minutes. Some of our players were too nervous and tense, but these feelings came from their ambition. Everyone really wanted to do well in the season opener, we are disappointed with the result but I am sure we can play better than that. In the second half, we played better with a man advantage, scored the goal and scored a second goal, which unfortunately was disallowed after a VAR review. I haven't had a chance to watch it back yet, but I feel that it was not too much to ask for Kodro's goal.”
Our head coach was also asked about the new position of Áron Csongvai and the game of young Milan Pető.
"Áron has been performing well in this position during the preparation, his sharp passing in attack means a lot, we can use his skills well on the wing, he might play here in the future, but the full picture is that we have five fully fit defenders at the moment, so I have to build a back line from them. Milan Pető has great potential. I can see him working day by day with great concentration, performing well in training and I think you could see today that he can also compete at this level.”
Nebojsa Vignjevic:
"Today's victory is thanks to the heart of the players. I was very sorry for the red card because we started the game very well and played very good until then. It's not easy to play more than sixty minutes with a man down, but all the players did well. You can play tactics in these situations, help the team from the sidelines, but it was their victory today. Vidi is a good team, especially in terms of technical skills, it's not easy to control the game against them, I'm happy that we managed to do it. "
