“But we didn’t get in well. We then fought our way into it very well and are also 2-0 up. Unfortunately, the connection hit came out of nowhere. The team reacted incredibly to that. It was not easy.

“We got behind the chain a lot and also made it 3-1 from a situation like that. We are incredibly happy today. It was a tremendous team effort. The win shows that we are on the right track. That we are leaders in the table doesn’t mean anything. ” he said.
