Lukas Hradecky spoke after Bayer Leverkusen's loss to Bayern Munich, reflecting on the team's recent poor performance, with three consecutive losses. He acknowledged Bayern's superiority, admitting that they were the better team throughout the match and highlighting the impact of missing key players like Florian Wirtz. Despite the disappointing defeat, Hradecky expressed a desire for Leverkusen to learn from the experience and remain competitive against top teams. The prospect of challenging for the Bundesliga title appears further out of reach, with the team sitting eight points behind Bayern Munich.
The last week has hit us, we've hit a bit of a dip in form. Bayern were clearly better - when you lose 5-0 over two legs, there's certainly big disappointment. But we can only learn from this.
You feel the absences of players like Florian Wirtz, but Bayern also knew how to close off our spaces. We hardly had any proper attempts on goal.
We're nevertheless proud, we want to remain competitive against Bayern and the other big teams. We have to grow and come back from this disappointment.
It remains to be seen how Leverkusen will bounce back from this, as the Bundesliga title too looks increasingly far-fetched for Leverkusen, who sit eight points below the Rekordmeister.
