Mate Patkai: A win in the 250th game

The midfielder has been a regular this season in the heart of midfield and notched up his 250th first division appearance. 

"It felt really good on Sunday to play in my 250th NBI league match. The win made it even better and a nice way to celebrate the jubilee. I hope that the 250th appearance means something as not too many players can say that about themselves. Looking back at our game with Puskas Academy, we need to admit that it was a bad start to the game, and we needed 8-10 minutes to get back on our feet. We then managed to remain in charge for the remainder of the game. Marko Nikolic always reminds us before each game to try and pass the ball quickly forward when we get hold of it. We should try and find the attackers ahead of us instead of passing the ball sideways. We practise this a lot in training and I am pleased that I managed to play in Scepovic, who was very unselfish to play in Danko for the goal. We celebrated the win on Sunday, but are now concentrating on our EL match on Thursday. We are preparing to cause a surprise in Bordeaux and will not be going to France with our hands up" - commented Mate Patkai after the match.
