Post-match comments of Skonto FC and FK Zhalgiris head coaches:
Paul Ashworth, Skonto FC head coach:
"In Riga the match was slightly more difficult as the one in Vilnius. The opponent played better in defence this time. I would disagree with the referee for dismissing our player, because in the episode even yellow card could be discussable. Even if we missed one player on the pitch, we continued our attacks and as a result we got a victory what we deserved. Matches like this show our team spirit."
Gediminas Kontautas, FK Zhalgiris head coach:
"I congratulate Skonto for their win. They deserved to get in the semi-finals. After the 2:4 loss in the first leg at our home it was difficult to tune ourselves for fight to get in the next round. The red card actually did not do us any good, but worked the other way around, because players maybe thought that all has been achieved in the match."
