“We are on a very good path” | Post-Match Quotes

You can find all the quotes from after the 2-0 home win against SV Darmstadt 98 here.
 

MARCO ROSE

  • “We were immediately focused today, ready and eager to play. The early goal definitely helped us. Then we missed a few opportunities and also gave them chances. But Peter Gulacsi held very well once in the first half and twice in the second half. Shortly after the break we scored the second goal, which eased the pressure.

    Overall, it was a good and sharp performance from my team in this challenging week with an important victory that we will take into the next week of training. Basically, I like our development and the way we take on tasks. We have to continue on this path.”

Press conference from RBL vs SVD

Willi Orban

  • “At no time today did I have the feeling that we wouldn’t leave the pitch as winners. We didn’t know exactly what Darmstadt was planning. But we wanted to play our game and that worked out perfectly with the first action. Then we were a bit rough in some situations, but we also noticed that the ‘English week’ was in our feet.

    But overall it was a controlled game for us and in the end the three points count. We are now more confident in our processes and know what we have to do. We know our quality, now we reward ourselves for our effort. Now come the games where we have to score points. But I’m very positive.

    Over 300 games for RB Leipzig is a huge number. But I think I can still improve a lot. When I was warming up today, there were a few scenes that I wasn’t really aware of anymore. Those were beautiful moments that I was able to experience with the club. I’m enjoying my time and looking forward to everything that’s to come.”
     

XAVER SCHLAGER

  • “Wednesday was tough to take, but today we responded. We knew that we had a very important game coming up with fourth place in reach. And we really wanted to win it. Darmstadt work very hard every week and are rightly in the Bundesliga. They defended well.

    But we still had a few chances that we didn’t take advantage of. We made it 2-0 early in the second half, but then there were two more dangerous counterattacks. If they score one, it will be nervy again. In the end we defended it cleanly.

    Now the results are slowly coming in, we have to keep at it. It is good and important that the squad is fit. The games against Real Madrid confirmed how good we can be. Every one of us wants to go back there.”
     

CHRISTOPH BAUMGARTNER

  • “We started really well today, but we lost our quality in front of goal. But then we had our chances again. We knew that we had to score the second goal straight away in the second half.

    Goals are always good for an offensive player. We also won the game today, so I’m very happy. The goal also gives me more energy for the week before the international break to really step on the gas.

    We want to experience nights like those in Madrid again. This is only possible if we do our work in the Bundesliga. We have to put Dortmund under pressure and get our points. We are on a very good path.”
     

ROUVEN SCHRÖDER

  • “We did our work today and appeared very united. It was clear to everyone that this would be a difficult game. Darmstadt were certainly a bit shocked after the last game, but showed a good reaction today.

    We could have made better use of one or two situations today, but on the other hand we won 2-0 and gained three points on Dortmund. But we look after ourselves and want to win our games. Therefore we are satisfied. Our goal is to qualify for the Champions League again. It’s wonderful that we don’t have anyone injured apart from Lukas Klostermann. 

  • The competition is fierce, the coach can sometimes swap and set incentives. When Dani Olmo, Christoph Baumgartner and Benjamin Sesko come off the bench, then that is high quality. And that’s exactly what we want.”
