Find all the reaction to our 3-1 win against TSG Hoffenheim here.
Marco Rose
- “We tried to play for a win from the outset, but we had to be wary of counterattacks and set-pieces. We deserved to come away with the win after our second-half performance, with Emil changing the game for us. I’m more than happy with what I saw today.
It was exactly what you’d imagine a perfect send-off for Emil to look like. He made the difference in a tight game. We saw that we’re losing a fantastic player and a great person. We’re wishing him and his family all the best!”
Emil Forsberg
- “I’m struggling to believe it. It feels great to have scored a goal in my last home match and to win alongside the boys. I love this club, this city and the fans.
I’ve experienced everything here with the club, from the 2. Bundesliga to the Champions League to the DFB-Pokal win. It’s been an incredible journey!”
Yussuf Poulsen
- “It’s fantastic! You don’t get to play in emotional games like that every day. Emil is my friend for life. It’s not surprising considering we’ve been playing together for nine years.
He’s a great guy. You won’t find anyone in the dressing room, or anywhere, who has a bad word to say about him. It’s a real shame that he’s leaving us. You saw his class today. He came on and only needed 25 minutes to turn the game on its head.”
