I felt the players we'd brought in were different to the ones we'd lost and I enjoy working with them. They're coachable and they want to learn. Sometimes when you get a group of players at the end of January, you work, work, work but it doesn't happen straight away. You get the fruits of your labour further down the line. That's always happened - it takes time for them to get going.
Pernille Harder put the defending double winners in front with a quickfire double, and Linda Dallmann made it 3-0 shortly before half-time at the Franz-Kremer-Stadion.

What I'm just getting tired a little bit is to get that target on my back all the time. I have never seen Daniil playing like this. I knew at the beginning that he was going to play aggressive, but how, the way he did it, surprised me a lot. He didn't even miss.

When I saw Fermin watching me, I spotted the space. I didn't hesitate and went for it. I was going to shoot with my right foot, but I saw Maffeo and, since I trust my left more, I cut inside. Actually, Mascarell got a touch on it. It made me incredibly happy. These are moments you don't even dream of as a kid.
