Elias Olsson participated in a meeting with journalists ahead of the match against Widzew Łódź.

On the atmosphere after Cup Game:

– Of course, we are angry. This is not what we wanted, we wanted to win this game of course but it’s done. Now we need to go for the next game, we need to forget this game as fast as possible. There’s a new game, a new challenge tomorrow and we need to win to give our fans the most.

On the reason for losing in the Cup Game:

– I don’t know, actually. Cup Game is difficult sometimes, when you play against the low division. But I hope it will never happen again. There was too easy mistakes but hopefully it will never happen again.

On the difference between First League and Ekstraklasa:

– There’s a big difference of quality, maybe a bit slower of First League, but I think also we’ve done too easy mistakes in conceding goals. I think we concede goals too easily, we lose our guard. Then the opponent have luck, maybe not luck, but they get the ball when they want. We need to make it much better, have clean sheets like last year and work from there. To have the clean sheets first and then score goals is more important then score goals, then concede goals.

On the strategy for the match against Widzew:

– Of course, they are a good team. We know them, we looked at them today, we know what we have to do and of course we know Sypek as well and his quality also. But I think we need to play our game, we need to, like I said before, start from defending and play our game, play offensive game, and that would be good to win for everyone, for the team, fans, stadium.

On whether the defense will be a deciding factor in the match:

– Yes, of course, like I said, without a question we need to start with having clean sheets, we need to be proud to defend. We need to defend the goal more, maybe celebrate when we do something like when we score, we need to celebrate clearance, the header together and have the clean sheet.
