Dávid Duschek, Goalie, Győr: It is always good to win, this environment is new to me and I needed some time to get used to the playing surface and the puck being different. This was my first inline season, I have been playing for 3 weeks. Our defence played great and in the attacking end we converted on our chances. We played calm and collected which lead to us winning.

István Bartalis, Forward, Győr: I think our opponent got tired, Szillárd Sándor played very well for his age he deserves all the credit for the way he worked hard and showed a great example. We played very disciplined, didn't overcomplicate the game and took advantage of our chances. We have won two inline titles and we will be going for our third next season.
