“Today was a very important match. I am very happy, it is the end of Ramadan and I want to congratulate all Muslims.

It is very important that we won, after losing a derby in the last match. We needed three points. The important thing is just to win, especially since we are in the play-offs.

We must mobilize and continue the same. I want to give more for the team, that's the most important thing. If I score or provide an assist, it's a plus for me.

We played very well today and I want to continue like that. I congratulate my teammates”, said Meriton Korenica, at Prima Sport.
