- "After we went through the training camp, I knew and saw that we had a good team with qualified players. I realized that we could take a step forward. Of course, if you look back to the period before these four opening rounds, it was probably unlikely that we would get 12 points. But, once again, it's good that we have been working together as a team for these four rounds, fighting for each other. All these victories are very important for us. It was hard to get them. We won these victories only due to our character and cohesion.
But in any case, there are absolutely no thoughts about the championship. We go from game to game. There is no point in predicting what will happen. The championship has just begun. We have played only four rounds. The whole distance is still ahead. The main thing is not to relax and not to look at the standings now. We will look there at the end of the championship. We need to go out on the field and tune in to each opponent. And we already realize that each opponent will look at us differently. We must be fully prepared for this and give our best on the field. We have to give even more than we have now. We need to give our all," said the forward.
