Videoton cleverly and enthusiastically ruined Manchester United's attacking moves, according to the summary of the newspapers the following day.
At the same time they also highlighted: "The well prepared and tactically mature players on one hand blocked, and could not find themselves. This is why the current best players of Videoton needed to perform at an even higher level. There was no football, just the will. A great will. You can take your hats off to Videoton. They continue this great run, which has seen them in to the final eight of the UEFA cup. Let's admit that taking into consideration the factors, this is a fantastic result!"
The tough, and at times unreasonably tough football against the English side resulted in the players battling to their maximum. The Hungarian media were hopeful that the one goal deficit kept Vidi still in the tie, alhough playing Manchester away means that they are one of the most dangerous sides in the world!
