“The 3:1 victory in the first match at home was very important. This allowed us to make changes to the lineup. That’s why Carlos CABALLERO played right at the beginning against Havířov’s best player. He accomplished his task and won. I was a little surprised by the result of the second singles when Lam Siu HANG on the other hand lost. But he is very tired we played five games in seven days. When Vladislav Ursa won we knew we would pass. That’s why Lam Siu Hang didn’t come on. We are very happy it is a historic moment for our club ” said Gwiazda Bydgoszcz coach Patryk JENDRZEJEWSKI.

“The opponent made a smart change in the lineup. But we had a chance when Ondřej BAJGER beat Lam Siu Hang. Therefore it is a great pity that Zokhid KENJAEV on the other hand lost. We would have a great chance to advance. Of course everything was decided by the third singles match. I am happy that we ended this season in the European Cups with a victory advancing to the 3rd stage was a huge success for our club ” stated Havirov coach Kamil KOUTNÝ.
