"From the first minute on, you could see what we wanted to do, the idea, the plan, the willingness. We just crushed them, and then we were also very efficient in scoring goals. It was an impressive performance by the team. We saw how Atalanta played against Dortmund, but we didn't give them any space to breathe."
"We combined, also forced the second ball at the right moments, went long, pushed up, won the ball, played deep and utilised the spaces that appeared. I think we really did a lot right today."
