Szekely: “Really good match here today from both sides“
PPD Zagreb - Telekom Veszprem 23:26 (13:13)
(Gadza 5, Sipic 4 / Yahia 5, Borozan 5)
David Davis, Telekom Veszprem coach:
Complicated match for us but we expected it to be that way. They were aggressive on the defensive side of the court and focused on offense. I'm happy with this win and I'd like to say it was great to coach here today and compete against such a handball legend like Veselin Vujovic – both as a player and a coach.
Veselin Vujovic, PPD Zagreb coach:
Well-deserved win for Veszprem here today, a team which has the potential to become European champion. As I said before, this match was not as important for us as the one on Monday against Meshkov will be but I think we delivered a good performance and now we're turning towards the game against Meshkov.
Marton Szekely, Telekom Veszprem goalkeeper:
Coach basically said everything, really good match here today from both sides. Our defense was today really good and that helped me grab a few extra saves. Good win for us and good luck to Zagreb for the rest of the season.
Damir Bicanic, PPD Zagreb player:
Veszprem have delivered a really good performance and I'd also like to highlight their goalkeeper who was extraordinary today. I think we delivered a solid outing as well, defense was not bad but we should have been more focused on offense which would've helped us keep the result levelled all the way until the final buzzer.
