Đorđe Ćirković, Vojvodina's coach:

- I would like to congratulate Tatran for a deserved win. We’ve known that they have some injured players but we simply did not put enough effort in the game today. One of our most important players Uroš Elezović, got injured in the first half and it was hard to play without him. But on the plus side, at least our youngsters Jovanović and Ranisavljević have gained experience.

Bojan Todorović, Vojvodina's player:

- I think that Uroš Elezović’ injury really affected our game, one less player in the rotation and at the end it was a key for our loss. We didn’t do what we’ve agreed on in the locker room before the game and that’s why we’ve lost today’s match.   

Peter David, Tatran's coach:

- We have problems with injuries in our team and we’ve had to improvise a lot. This is an important win for us. I am happy we’ve managed to decide this match before the last few minutes, in the middle of the second half. I will bring confidence to our team. I believe this was a really nice game for fans today, they have seen 66 goals.  

Dominik Krok, Tatran’s player:

- Considering the fact that we have so many injured players, we’ve played quite well in this match. I believe that the win in Zagreb has affected our today’s performance as well. We were really good and we’ve deserved to win today.
