VfB head coach Sebastian Hoeneß: “We won the game in the first half, we played well and were aggressive in the tackles. We did a lot of things right. We put our opponents under pressure early on, we were efficient and scored our goals at the right times. Overall, it was another wonderful evening of football. The atmosphere in the stadium was incredible. Our fans deserve credit and our thanks for that. We’re very proud and happy about this win today.”
Waldemar Anton: “Today we achieved one of our objectives by securing qualification for the Europa League at the very least. Above all, the fans deserve that. They carry us through the season and have done so for years. We’ve still got a few big games left to play. Winning and keeping a clean sheet are very important, especially for us defenders.”
Jamie Leweling: “We played really well. We completely dominated the first half. It was a successful Saturday evening for us. I’ve had plenty of situations in the past where I’ve wanted to poke the ball into the net, but the fact I nutmegged Kevin Trapp today was an accident. That makes me all the happier about the win.”
