Elmu Koppelmann, coach of SK Tapa
“We played half of the time, out of our two games, as a team and used our opportunities and played our game plan. We can’t say that about yesterday’s game. The breaking moment in today’s game started on the 10th minute and at the beginning of the second half. We started to support each other and thanks to that we won both of the matches played this weekend.”
