Radomir Djalovic: We played championic, and Radeljic played practically with one foot …

– A huge victory for us, we came to Šibenik for three points and we managed to make it. But it was not easy, we didn’t even expect because Sibenik is fighting for a naked life, they are in good rhythm, and it’s always hard to play here. We also had problems with injuries, Radeljic played a game with one foot … Maybe in the first 45 minutes we weren’t at the level, the terrain was heavy, the heat, Sibenik had a 1-2 chance, and at halftime we got together. And they scored that goal that made 3 points – said Rijeka coach, and continued:

– We played this game champion, for who knows what time these guys showed that they do their best, and all their honor on it. Just like our fans who made the atmosphere like Rujevica.

On the other hand, Rajko Vidovic is pleased with the performance of his team, but also sad about the final outcome.

– Too bad, I’m sorry for the player, we played a really good game, reduced Rijeka to one chance, scored that goal from it and in the end deservedly won. I congratulate them on this, they are not accidentally where they are and I want them to stay that way. We had our opportunities, but we won’t go naked, luck turned our backs again – said Sibenik’s coach, adding:

– Probably this whole situation around us influences that your happiness is turning your back on the key moments … But, what is it. Well, and this situation about the points of resentment of points, you have 2 points for an hour, you don’t have an hour, it makes it difficult to prepare the match. But congratulations to the players on the fight, on the game … There are two more rounds ahead of us to try to win points.
