But then we quickly missed the answer. In the second half, there was too much marriage, especially when leaving the defense. We were cut off very often, and therefore there were many chances at our goal.
Vaduz is an aggressive team and they played very well. They had chances, but we scored a very necessary goal, won three points. This is very pleasing, because we remain competitive in the tournament struggle.
Of course, we will analyze this match again and talk with the players. It was a tough game, the guys were tired. We spend a lot of time on the road, we do not always have time to recover properly, which is why fatigue accumulates. And in two days we have a game again, so we will continue to prepare.
There is a result, and this is the most important thing now. Such matches take a lot of nerve cells, but a victorious denouement gives new strength, it has a very positive emotional effect. Therefore, I am especially pleased that we were able to score and win,” Kucher said after the match with Vaduz.
