"We would have liked to have avoided extra time before the match, as we did not want to play 120 minutes of football during midweek. I do not think that the two sides surprised each other one bit, with open and honest football being played by both teams. We could have settled the tie earlier on, as we had several chances, but we had to wait until the 86th minute for the winning goal. The second  goal was a typical Niko goal. I have said earlier that I am the type of forward that needs service. What Arturo did leading up to the goal was just amazing, and I was waiting in the right place at the right time. I am pleased that we have gone  through." - commented Nemanja Nikolics to vidi.hu.
