Roland Szolnoki: Ujpest were unable to surprise us

The defender revealed that the coaching staff have played a big role in the success. Once again they prepared the team really well against the opponents.

"We were very together in the Hungarian cup, semi-final, second leg. We helped each other both in defending and when we were on the attack. There were several other chances to score on top of the four that went in. Ujpest had to attack us by all accounts, so that left enough space behind their defence, which we took good advantage of. There were certain periods in the match when we defender back in our own half, but Ujpest were unable to create a clear cut chance on goal. Their goal came from a set-piece. I felt that they were unable to surprise us and we were well prepared for them. This was the sixth game against them this season, so both sides know each other well. The coaching staff once again prepared us really well. We got from Ujpest in the match exactly what we had been working on in training during the week. They brought several things to our attention when we watched videos of them. It now looks more than likely that the Hungarian cup final will be played against Ferencvaros. I feel that the current two best sides in Hungary will meet in the final, but that game is not in our minds at the moment. We have a very important game in the league on Saturday at the home of Debrecen. We will not focus on anything other than the game against 'Loki' and picking up the 3 points" - commented Roland Szolnoki to vidi.hu.
