The defender previews Tuesday's return leg in Malta.
"The first leg match against Balzan FC was more difficult than I thought it would be. Our Maltese opponents were very organised in defence. It seemed from inside that they did not really want to attack, and only concentrate on the defensive side of things. They made a substitution in the 91st minute when the score was 1-0, which they considered would have been a good result and they wanted to protect it. Fortunately we managed to score another goal in the end. I am sure that the Maltese side will play in a different way in the second leg. I do not think that they will be trying to protect their 2-0 deficit. We need to make sure that they will be forced to open up much more. I am also sure that the earlier kick off time in Malta will make things more difficult than we are used to back home. However, we cannot look for excuses as our opponents will be playing in the same circumstances. I like the fact that the manager has been counting on me in the heart of defence. It is not the first time I have played in this position. I played earlier here under Joan Carrillo" - commented Andras Fejes.
