Marko Nikolic: We are treating today's game as a big one

The Videoton manager previews Saturday's away league game against Vasas.

"I do not think that the game will be any bigger than normal for the Vasas players following their last minute goal last week to gain a point. I also do not think that they will be anymore comfortable. The same applies to us. Last weeks game is already part of history, and it is only interesting for those that like statistics. We are not dealing with this at all. It will be a very difficult game ahead of us. Vasas have always made things tough for Vidi in matches over the years. They have a team that has a good mentality and battle well. They are fighting to avoid relegation, while we are fighting for the league title. This is why you can consider the game to be a big match. Everyone knows how to play in games like these. We have shown good form over the spring with the exception of the Paks match. However, this does not count  and a new story begins this evening. There are three games left to play and I can see in training that the players feel the importance. The players know that every little detail counts. There are two weeks left of the season and it is the best time for everyone to bring out the maximum in them. I personally respect the Budapest side and it is hard to play against them. We will have a tough job playing away. The truth is that the game will be played in Ujpest, but I am sure that their side have gotten used to the Ferenc Szusza stadium as their home pitch. It will be a real big match and I hope that we will show the right attitude and a little bit of fortune will see us leave the pitch as vitors" - commented manager Marko Nikolic ahead of his sides game with Vasas.
