Davis: “I'm honored to be the coach of such a team“
Telekom Veszprem - Metaloplastika 36:29 (22:14)
(Yahia 6, Gajic 6, Nilsson 6 / Milic 7; Jandric 11 saves)
David Davis, Telekom Veszprem coach:
We're dealing with a rough schedule and most of our key players are already preparing for Kielce. I am satisfied because of the victory but we should have played better in defense. Allowing 29 goals is way too much. I'd like to thank our fans for coming today and say I'm honored to be the coach of such a team and that today I had a chance to compete against Veselin Vukovic who I watched playing in Barcelona back when I was young. It's always nice to see handball family is still here.
Gasper Marguc, Telekom Veszprem player:
This was not our best match, but we are happy because of the victory. We controlled the whole match. In the second half the match against Kielce was already on our minds. I hope a lot of fans will come to support us on Saturday, it is very important for us to get those two points.
Veselin Vukovic, Metaloplastika coach:
Veszprem are one of the best teams in Europe, candidates for the Final4 in both SEHA League and Champions League. Congratulations to them on a fair and good match. For young team of Metaloplastika it is a good opportunity to get good playing minutes and continue growing.
Igor Cagalj, Metaloplastika player:
Congratulations to Veszprem on this victory. They are an amazing team with huge goals. In the beginning we were not strong neither in defense nor in offense. But when we did what our coach asked from us then we managed to play better and come closer to Veszprem.
