Paulo Sousa was satisfied with his side's performance in the OTP league
: "Lots of things happened in this match. Before I talk about events in the game itself, I do have to say that I do not consider it a humane thing, that the game should have been played in such heat and at this time of day for both sides. I would like to praise the players in both teams, that they managed to be part of a very good, and upbeat game, despite the conditions. We had chances in the first half to go ahead, but we missed the penalty. I had to make tactical changes more than once during the 90 minutes. Our goal finally came in the one but last tactical formation, which turned out to be the winning goal. We played with maturity and very well, and I would like to congratulate each of my players. As I have said previously, it is performance such as this that make it worthwhile for a manager to wake up each morning."
Jos Daerden: "I agree with what my colleague has said, that it is very difficult to play football in conditions like this. I would also like to praise the players. We created several chances in the first half, but did not manage to score from them. We did not have the chance to enjoy our man advantage, and Peter Kabat's sending off had a big impact on us. We lost a very intelligent and creative player. We also had chances in the second half, and created chances. I would like to congratulate my players on the performance that they produced."
