"I think we also deserved it today. We were very dominant in the second half, we've earned it over the whole season. I'm just proud of the team because everyone gave their all today and we stayed patient until the end - and also showed what we're capable of. Wolfsburg were very compact, which was annoying for us. They played with five at the back. We had problems with that in the last match that Wolfsburg won against us; you just have to be patient. In the second half, the spaces opened up and obviously that presents more opportunities."
"It's always good to score just before half-time - also mentally. It gave us assurance and momentum for the second half, otherwise it might have got a bit more frantic. It definitely wasn't easy today against Wolfsburg. When two teams of this calibre meet, it's clear that the match won't be decided in the first half. It was important that we stuck to our guns. Especially in the second half, we managed to pull off our game better, scored some nice goals and in the end won by four goals."
"It was just a wonderful afternoon all round - in front of a mega crowd. It's just great fun with this team. The coach said clearly to us at half-time that nothing was decided yet. We had to keep going with the same concentration and intensity. Of course, being 1-0 up was an advantage for us, but we were also aware that Wolfsburg would come out aggressively after the break. I think we then scored the goals at very good times and that gave us more confidence."
"After a tentative opening phase, Bayern gradually took control of the game against the deep-lying She-Wolves. Harder had the first really threatening moment in the 20th minute, when she headed narrowly wide from Klara Bühl. Deadlock broken at end of first half"
