“Congratulations to FC Bayern. This is the most serious title you can win. When you’re top after 34 rounds of matches, you’ve deserved it – regardless of how it happened,” said Edin Terzic at the beginning of the press conference.
Edin Terzic on missing out on the title:
“Not only the team, not only the stadium, not only the whole city believed in the victory today. We started well, had control and managed to create chances. After the first goal we conceded and especially after the second, you could see how heavy the ball and our legs became. We needed time to get clarity back in our game. At the half-time break, the boys believed that the season has been so crazy that we could turn this around too. We tried everything until the end. You can see how tough this sport that we’ve fallen in love with can be. It’s extremely painful: there was no happy ending for us this season.”
…on the reaction from the fans:
“They’ve been there from day one. It hurts so much that we couldn’t reward them today. But we will do. It will just take slightly longer.”
…on the penalty taker:
“Seb felt very confident. And we have incredible trust in him. His story this season is beyond belief.”
…with a look ahead to next season:
“Regardless of how great the pain is today, it will be the motivation for tomorrow. We were so close. One goal was missing. We were on a really good track in the second half of the season especially. It will be rewarded one day.”
