The two managers spoke shortly after the final whistle
Videoton picked up a point at Szolnok on Saturday afternoon, with Vidi's goal coming from Andre Alves.
Gyorgy Mezey: "Everyone is talking about us in Hungary, as being unbeatable. If we come up against a smaller side, then we are expected to beat them by many goals. This is a totally unrealistic state. My players worked hard today, and prepared well, playing with organization. We should not forget that they are only human, and they can have a bad day. Today's game turned out to be like this. At the same time, the state of the pitch cannot go unmentioned. The players needed to touch the ball several times, before they could make a pass. It is a shame that this two-week international break has disturbed the tempo, which the players had set. We had four players away, and both Liptak and Elek are still feeling dissapointed over the 4-0 loss against Holland." Antal Simon: "Videoton are the strongest side in Hungarian football, and they are also the most prepared. There is no argument about this, and we prepared against them, just like with any other side. Looking at the game overall, I felt that the point we picked up was not a gift. We fought very hard for that it. I was disappointed with the goal that we conceded. It came in unlucky circumstances, and there was a lack of communication between the defenders." | ||
