Ján Haspra (head coach of MFK Ružomberok): „A colleague accurately captured what it was in the first half time. Although I would paradoxically say that it was not bad for us, but the efficiency of Žilina, the dueling and the ability to push through, took us away from the sails. The second half time, on the other hand, I myself did not believethat it was possible, that we could do it but my boysmade me happy in the second half time. In the second half time they took it from the floor. Apparently, the burden that has been on us since the match with Pohronie has fallen off from them. Then it started. We scored two goals, the opponent had a disqualified player. We thought we´d reverse it. We also tried some tactical rearrangements. We tried everything possible. Žilina let us take anotherchances, but without success. So I feel embarrassed. Finally, in the second half time we got a little higher from the bottom. We have shown what potential we have in our team and what we are capable of, and that pleases me. We did not manage the first half time due to individual mistakes. From this match I also take a lot of positives for the future."
