Norbert Hrnčár (head coach of MFK Ružomberok): „I can say we saw an excellent match. It had tempo, a good level, playing up and down. Paradoxically, we enteredthe match well, created pressure. We had one or two chances, and we conceded the goal from the first action, which made us a little bit nervous. In the second half, wecreated a strong predominance, great pressure, and I think the goal was a fair result. Also, as guest coach reminded that the guests had chances, we also had enough options to break the game in our favor. So in the end the draw is probably fair for the match.“
