Videoton FC came from behind to win the first leg match 2-1 on Thursday evening.
José Gomes: "Today's game was far from what I would like to see. Our opponents were well prepared for the match, and they even replaced their forward. The game started well for them, and they took a quick lead. They then defended with good organization. It is difficult to play against a team like this, which defends in such numbers in front of their own goal. Naturally there is a suitable way to get through a playing style like this, which is based on creativity and pace. This was missing from our game today. We are still very much at the start of the season, and we will need to develop. We will need a bit of time for this. I am sure that we will play better in the second leg."
Nikola Rakojevic: "I was satisified with the way my team played. Videoton FC are a better side that us, and you could see this in the possession. Our counter attacks were not too dangerous, with us conceding both goals through errors. We knew that Videoton FC would be extremely dangerous at set pieces. It was also clear to see the difference between the two teams, and I am counting on a very difficult second leg."
