The forward refused to come on as a substitute against Tottenham as Man Utd ran out 2-0 winners at Old Trafford.

The team – which Tullberg had described as having “special character” at his pre-match press conference – once again showcased their heart and passion at the Österbro Stadium in Copenhagen. They had been written off by the halfway point of the group stages – following a 2-0 loss to Copenhagen, a 3-2 defeat at Manchester City and a 1-1 draw away to Sevilla – but they fought back and, along with Eintracht Frankfurt, became one of only two German clubs to progress through the group in this elite competition. “I’m very happy, the boys earned this,” said a beaming Mike Tullberg after the final whistle.

Amine Harit has come through a tough period in his life. The 22-year-old is now highly motivated again and is looking to regain his form from his debut Bundesliga season. The Moroccan discussed learning German, his aims for the new season and what gives him strength off the pitch.

“We’re coming up against a team that have lots of individual quality. We know what we’re up against, but we believe that we can do the business against Leverkusen,” explained an upbeat Enrico Maaßen in Thursday’s presser. FCA celebrated their first ever Bundesliga win over Friday’s opponents earlier in the season (2-1) but a lot has happened in Leverkusen since then.

When the plane with flight number LH4270 takes off from Berlin Brandenburg (BER) on Tuesday morning, the Hertha players will finally have finished their winter holidays. After fitness tests at the beginning of the week, the schedule will then turn to a training camp at the IMG Academy at Brandenton in Tampa. The Blue-Whites will be working on their form on Florida’s golf coast – with pleasant temperatures of around 20ºC expected. “We are looking forward to the training camp and want to use the opportunity to work hard on certain key areas: above all, on precision in our attacking play,” said head coach Sandro Schwarz, who was also able to rely on everything learnt in the past months. “In the first 15 league games we have come a long way and built stability. We have the clear aim to build on that and to take the next step.”
