“It was a classic team performance in which everyone helped each other to achieve their performance. We played a top game here today. Of course we needed a lot of luck twice in one scene, but otherwise we can be very satisfied with the game. Very grown-up, very mature game from us,” said Hummels at DAZN.
Thanks to BVB’s home win, the Bundesliga collected the necessary points to field five CL participants in the coming season – and everything looks like Borussia, currently fifth in the table, will benefit from this.
“We covered up our lousy Bundesliga season with a very good Champions League season. We don’t have to beat it: the Bundesliga and the cup were not our aspirations this year,” said Hummels.
