"Bayern Munich was not super-sharp or overly great during its rugged 3-1 win over St. Pauli. Sometimes games have an aesthetic, sometimes they are a street fight, and sometimes they are just a total grind to work through. This victory was - undoubtedly - a grind for the Bavarians, but sporting director Christoph Freund saw his squad test its mettle and show its mentality against a very game St. Pauli team."
"It was obviously a tough match. St. Pauli played well and got off to a perfect start with the 1-0 lead. We controlled the game but didn't create that many clear-cut chances. It was a really intense game right to the end. But at the end of the day, it was a fantastic win in stoppage time that gives us a lot of energy and shows the character of the team. I love such wins,"
