— It was a fun game for fans. I am glad that in this tough match we managed to win. We were faced with a good organization of the game from Nymburk, both on defense and on offense. This is not surprising, the opponent has good instructors in head coach Kestutis Kemzura and his assistant Robertas Kuntsaytis. And coaches and players of Nymburk did a good job. Again, that was a tough match. In two quarters we were behind by 10 points, but I am glad that our team showed character.
