00:00One of the biggest clubs in the world, just like Dortmund?

00:03Yeah, no, like you said, I mean, of course, Real Madrid is one of, if not the biggest club in the world.

00:10A lot of star players, unbelievable quality, unbelievable individual quality from the players.

00:17I think, of course, they have an edge on us with that, but I think, yeah, I mean, we have to, we know them,

00:24we played against them, we had good games against them as well, not so good games as well.

00:28So, I mean, it will be a lot of fighting, a lot of running.

00:34We, for sure, have to play as a team.

00:36I think, individually, they have the better players on paper, so we need to play as a team,

00:43we need to be focused, we need to play together and leave everything on the pitch.

00:47And, yeah, and I think then we can beat every opponent.

00:51How important is it for you guys to have someone who knows him that well?

00:55I mean, I think he's missing, right?

00:58I think he's missing because of the yellow cards, so he will not be able to play, which is sad for the media.

01:05I know that, I feel you guys.

01:07You did it on purpose, right?

01:09Yeah, I mean, still we can write about it.

01:12I mean, these two brothers are, I know Job now since a short time.

01:17I know Jude for a long time now.

01:20Yeah, it's two special characters, very focused, very driven, amazing family, I know the parents as well.

01:30Great people, just all around, yeah, just great people.

01:35Okay, thank you very much.

01:37Dankeschön.

01:38Next one is in the waiting room.

01:40What do you think of the adjustments to do with that match?

01:44Well, first of all, we are pretty glad, happy about that win.

01:48I think we played a pretty good first half, well impressed about all the chances we had.

01:54I think we could score some more goals, perhaps four would be okay.

01:59And then the game would be perhaps over.

02:02Second half was a little bit different.

02:04Of course, Monterey is a good team.

02:06They fought pretty hard.

02:08They scored very early.

02:10And then some long balls, many balls behind our last line, so it was not easy.

02:16There was one chance from Sergio Ramos, almost.

02:21But at the end, I think this win is absolutely deserved.

02:25And now, of course, we are looking forward to Real Madrid.

02:28It's a special game, it's against one of our opponents in Europe.

02:34We played many times against Real Madrid, always big matches.

02:38Everybody's looking forward and let's see, we are under the best eight teams.

02:42It's an amazing step and big compliment to our team, to the staff, to the trainer coaches, of course, to all of them.

02:50I'm sorry?

02:51So who had the brace in the first half?

02:53I know what he can.

02:54So I'm not surprised.

02:55I see him every day.

02:56It was a good signing last season.

02:57And Sergio showed this performance already in the last season in the Champions League, one of the top scorers in the Bundesliga as well.

03:13So he's a very, very important player for us.

03:18Not only because he scores goals or assists goals, but he's a man, he's a leader.

03:27He has the right mindset.

03:29He's professional.

03:30And, yeah, that's the reason why we love to have him.

03:35So, of course, he could score more than two goals in the first half.

03:39Of course, he will be a little bit angry about that.

03:41But on the other hand, yeah, top game.

03:44So, congrats.
