José Gomes: "Both sides still have the same chance of going through"

José Gomes saw his Vidi side dominate large spells of the Hungarian cup tie

José Gomes: I only had to look towards my right during the first half, or rather we were camped inside the Győr half. Then they came past the half way line for the first time, and managed to score a goal. It is not really worth discussing whether the result was justified. Depsite us creating several chances, we failed to put those away, while Győr scored two from their two. Football can be like this sometimes. This was the first half of the battle, and we will now go to Győr for the second leg, in order to fight our way through to the final, despite us trailing by two goals. The most important thing for us now is to rectify the mistakes, and to develop further the good things that we do. I will say once again that we had chances, but we need to be more agressive when it comes to our finishing. I am cetain that you will see the results of that in the second leg. Győr scored two goals today, so why can't it be the other way around in the second leg? Both clubs have the same chance of going through than was the case up until now.


Pintér Attila: We knew that we were going to the home of a very good side, and that the game would be a difficult one. We did not run as much as we should have in the first 15 minutes. The players then got a taste of the match and began to play good football. We succeded in carrying out what we had planned, and we got a result away from home, which can give us hope for the return leg. I would like to stress that the tie has not yet been settled.
