Zsuzsanna Tomori:
“It was a very difficult game, we had to keep the focus during all the game, but we managed to do this and every player got playing time added something which resulted in the victory at the end.
We knew that we will meet one of the best teams in this competition, out goal was to get the two points, and with the defence we presented in this match it was impossible to loos.
We had a clear lead all the match, never really lost the control of the game and didn’t let Vardar to play there game.
We are a team still in developing phase, but every day it gets better. I personally feel good, still making some mistakes but with more work hope to getting even better.”
Anita Görbicz:
” It is a really good match to return to the CL, with a clear victory against a strong opponent, always feels even better.
The team is still forming, we had a lot of newcomers, was hard work to put all the puzzles together, but how Ambros built up the whole preparation it was successfull and we are not in our best form yet, this will only improve by time.
I am looking forward to be able to play, working hard for that and I hope that I can help my team soon.
Next match against FC Midtjylland- is a must to win, even if we know that team is quiet fast and never gives up.”
