"It was a tough opponent. Gala has a really good team. I thought we came out and played well together and had a great first half. We played really well for 30 minutes, but it's a 40-minute game. It's never fun to lose, but I think we can take a lot of positives out of this, so we'll learn from it and just try to build on it." - Ray McCallum, Legia Warszawa

"They [Galatasaray] did a great job defensively in the second half. We played amazing first half and we were up, but we didn't play on same level in the second half, and we let them direct the game." - Wojciech Kaminsky, head coach Legia Warszawa

"It was an important victory for us. We had a very good reaction in the second half. It was a slow start in the first half actually, so this was very important because of the way it happened and our mental reaction to the game. At the same time, this is a long season, we need to stay humble because I can't point this out enough; whenever you win a game, it's not a triumph and whenever you lose a game, it's not a disaster. You cannot be successful or unsuccessful in a season in October. There's a lot of games to play and we need to keep it up." - Andreas Pistiolis, head coach Galatasaray Nef

"Tough game. We started out slow. Second half, we picked up the intensity and we won. We fought together as a team and that's all that matters." - Dee Bost, Galatasaray Nef
