Henning Berg reviews Friday's friendly matches

The Videoton manager saw his team play in two friendly matches on Friday in Spain.

Henning Berg talks about the games against Admira Wacker and Dinamo Bucharest:

Several young players were given the chance in the first match. Admira were able to show more in their game, but the youngsters picked up good experience against a strong side. The second game was much more sharper and we were up against a strong side. I am satisfied with these friendly games from what I saw. Naturally it would have been good to have won the game, even if we are talking about a friendly. It was important for as many of the players to pick up 90 minutes football. We played two matches so all of the players have sixty or ninety minutes football in their legs. This will allow us to carry on training in the same tempo for the whole squad. 

Damir Buric - Admira Wacker manager after his sides 1-0 win: 

We are in the middle of our pre-season and we tried out several new technical elements in the training camp. We are trying to keep the players under pressure all of the time, which is why they are quite tired. We always try to play our own game. Videoton are a good side and we wish them all the best in the games to come.

Ioan Andone, Dinamo Bucharest head coach spoke about the 0-0 game. 

It was a tough game against a good side. We faced the strongest team of our pre-season. I felt that Vidi are a stronger team then for example Zurich. They have good players and were well organised. It is not by accident that they lead the Hungarian league. Each league is hard to be top of, but Videoton are a fast side and they have players like the two Serbian forwards who are very good players. I would like to congratulate them!
