Marko Nikolic: We had many chances but something was missing today

The two managers shared their thoughts after the final whistle on Saturday.

Marko Nikolic:

"I congratulate Puskas Academy on the win. It was a classic game in the sense that we create so many chances, which we did not convert, which were then punished by the opponents goal. We started the game well, but Puskas went ahead with a fine goal. Naturally we should have been able to turn the game around, especially in the second half, but something was missing. We did not have enough strength to come from behind and did not deserve to win. We need to look at the game and find out the reason. Maybe our concentration wasn't what it should have been or the attitude or discipline? The blood was missing from their eyes. Perhaps it was a bit of everything. However, as I know this team, they will react well to this situation."

János Radoki :

"Naturally I am pleased to have won 3-0. We played the way we planned to. I do not like to wait for the opponents to make a mistake but prefer it when we have the ball. If we lose possession, then I want us to win it back as soon as possible. A good team can settle things inside the first half without having to go through a nervous period in the second half. We still have things to work on but it is good that the team wants to work and we can become better. It was not only me but several players made their debut today. The game was won by the team. We are pleased and can party but we will continue to work from tomorrow."
