MASTER SCALE
Momir Ilics: – Magdeburg was better than us, they won deservedly. Our problems were mainly in attack, we played awkwardly and slowly, shot inaccurately, and following mistakes we conceded several easy goals. Regardless, we will continue in the BL, we are there in the round of 16, we are preparing once morest Szeged.
Bennet Wiegert: – Of course, we are very happy, we have reached our goal. The two great teams fought a huge battle, it was a real emotional rollercoaster, there was an amazing atmosphere in this fantastic arena. Now we want to enjoy the success, since we came for one point, but we got two, which is a special pleasure.
The 207-centimeter Dane Mike Jensen started in goal for the home team for the first time in the last group stage of the Champions League, in the match between Telekom Veszprém and Magdeburg, which directly decided the quarter-finals, and perhaps the fact that he was guarding the goal for the Germans a year ago also played a role in the decision.
The match did not start with a flurry of goals, on the one hand, because neither team started to rush, and on the other hand, because both guards defended very hard, the trio of Patrik Ligetvári, Ludovic Fabregas, and Nedim Remili properly filtered the central attacks in the first ten minutes. However, Magdeburg, which took advantage of the mistakes of the Builders, gained the advantage, and on the home side, it seemed as if a little confusion reared its head, in the 17th minute, Hugo Descat made a mistake on the seven, and in front of him, the defender Magnus Saugstrup, who was hanging around on the six no one was surprised by him, and with his goal the visitors already had a three-point lead.
