"Each season opener is always a difficult, especially when it is against a side that is not easy to play football against. Large parts of the game saw them defend with 10 men behind the ball around their box. They managed to go ahead from their first move and they then sat back even more after that. We need to admit that Balmaz did well at the back and it was hard to find any room behind their defence or create chances. We tried all we could to score another goal after equalising. We had some promising attacks in the middle of the second half, but we could not score our second goal. We need to carry on working hard and prepare for more sides to use similar tactics against us. However, we working on finding a solution to play against this playing style" - commented Asmir Suljic to the club website.
