Marko Nikolic: We deserved to win the game

The two managers shared their views on Sunday's OTP game at Felcsut.

Marko Nikolic:

I would like to congratulate my players for the latest win. We have 6 wins after 8 games and remain the only unbeaten side in the league. We have a 5 points lead at the top of the table. So we have started the season well but nobody will think that we have won anything with this. This is only the start of the journey. The players will have Monday off to relax and then we will start to prepare for the Vasas game. I want us to continuously develop and improve and I feel that we are getting better day by day. The squad is still not complete but the situation is better than it was 3-4 weeks ago. We need to take each game seriously and treat it as if it was a final. We also need to work hard in each training session to become better. Our attitude was not the best in the first half today. Football is not about going out onto the pitch and winning a game, Gabor Kiraly produced two great saves and then Haladas took the lead and also missed a penalty. That was the turning point in the game. We took over in the second half and scored three goals and deserved to win. I would like to thank the supporters for their backing today!"

Pacsi Bálint:

We should have led by 3 goals in the first half. We carried out what we had planned to do. I was not surprised that the team became tired after 60 minutes. The fitness of the team is currently at the level it is. I saw many good things in the game and we can improve ourselves with this. We need to cut out the mistakes. Although I have started with a defeat, my dream of 22 years ago came true today when I finally managed Haladas.
