UNLIMITEDMen ALIVE: Press conference
Brian Priske after the match against Lillestrøm
UNLIMITED.
The UEFA Europa League league phase returned to Letná for the first time in three years. We dominated possession in the first half against Lillestrøm, with Ebrima Singhateh and Tobias Guddal among those who came close to scoring. However, it was not until the 56th minute that we broke the deadlock, as Josimar Alcócer, who had come on as a substitute for the Gambian winger, found the net. Unfortunately, we were unable to hold on to our slender lead. Deep into stoppage time, Thomas Olsen scored from an unassuming move. We therefore drew 1–1 with our Norwegian opponents at Letná.
