Following Tonybet Virsliga’s 9th-round win against Tukums 2000/Telms (2:1) Valmiera FC head coach Jurgis Kalns shared his comments and thoughts with the media.
Valmiera FC head coach Jurgis Kalns: “I will start as always – thank you to the fans, thank you to the fans of Valmiera who were in the stands, they could be heard. They had measured the long way to Tukums, on their free day, in good weather, thanks to them. As for the game, I think we played well, especially the first half, the beginning of the second half. This game reminds me of our season as a whole, when you attack, you don’t score, then one attack and it’s 1:1, that’s how Tukums equalized. We have a lot of games like this, we dominate in this way, a failure somewhere, one small mistake and a goal conceded. It was similar today, so it’s a great pleasure that we managed to recover quickly, score the second goal and win three points, because it’s not easy to play here. Before the game, I said that it feels like a prison here, there is a fence around, so you have to fight, otherwise it will be difficult. You have to fight for yourself and that’s exactly what happened today. You always have to fight here and Tukums does it too, there are no easy games here, this is their first loss this season, on this field, so we knew it would be difficult.”
