Dambrauskas after winning the championship: We had tough moments but we found the right way

The head coach of Ludogorets – Valdas Dambrauskas – did not hide his excitement after winning the championship title.

The head coach of Ludogorets – Valdas Dambrauskas – did not hide his excitement after winning the championship title. Ludogorets is now the only European club with ten consecutive domestic championship titles. The coach is certain that the upcoming matches are not meaningless and the team needs to prove why they are the champion once again.

„I want to congratulate all the people who worked hard for this success to come. It might seem easy but it is not. The people of Razgrad and everyone within the club can now walk tall, as they’ve earned it”, Dambrauskas said.

“I cannot say it is easy because it is my first year here. When you become a champion, some things lose their meaning. You need to succeed in every match. We had rough moments but we found the right path. We deserved the title”.

“I told Yankov that he will score the goal that will bring us the title because players like him dream of this happening. He achieved his dream and this goal is something he will repeat many times ahead in his career. He is very talented and he has a bright future. He and Keseru were replacements but made all the difference. All the players who contributed to each win during the season matter”.

“VAR is not a new system for me, as I’ve worked with the system for ten months in Croatia. We scored a goal and it was checked. There was a penalty kick for Beroe and it was allowed. It takes some of the emotion but it is needed for clarification. We need to adapt to it. I think that we need to develop our DNA in the upcoming matches – we need to underline we are the champions”, the coach concluded.
