Nemanja Nikolics started for Hungary last night scoring the opening goal of the match.
When did you find out that you would be starting for the Hungarian international side against Andorra in the World cup qualifier?
- We had a short training session in the morning, which is when I found out that I would be starting.
This was your second game for Hungary, and the first that you started, and you managed to score a goal. What is the feeling like inside you when you saw your header find the back of the net?
- Winning the game is the most important thing for me. Scoring a goal, even if it is in training, or in a friendly game, or even in a competitive match. I always feel good when I score a goal with a feeling of euphoria inside. I felt a bit extra than that in the game today. I am proud! Proud that I could score a goal for the Hungarian international side.
Who will you devote that goal to, which you scored for the national side?
- My daugher, wife, parents and family.
What will be the fate of the number 19 shirt for the international side?
- Each trophy and award that I have picked up so far, like the shirts from the Europa league games for example. have been collected by my wife and stored in the same place. I will take my shirt home tonight to Nori, and I am sure that she will find a suitable place for it in the collection.
