Adam Kovacsik: It was a very good team effort

The Vidi goalkeeper kept a clean sheet in his sides 0-0 first leg draw in Bulgaria.

"I would not necessarily have signed a 0-0 draw before the game as it would have been important to have got an away goal. Now I can say that I am satisfied with the result as it was the home side who directed things. They also created the more chances in the match. I feel that congratulations are due to each member of the team. It was a very difficult game for me me as I had to remain alert for 97 minutes. This does not happen in the NB I, as we tend to direct games. Perhaps I did not have to come out so many times for crosses last season as I had to today against Ludogorets. My biggest save was a deflected shot in the first half. We practice this a lot in training with our coach Istvan Brockhauser. I am pleased that I managed to save the shot from going in. This is a good result for the team and I feel that our chances of going through have increased. However, we all remember last season and the battle in Belgrade. We picked up a similar good result there and then ended up losing in Felcsut. I think that we have all learned from that battle and will not make the same errors. I would finally like to thank those supporters that came out to back us. I also want to say thanks to those that watch back home on TV" - commented keeper Adam Kovacsik.
