Reactions: “... a certain spectacle”
· Yahoo Sports
“Especially in the first half, it was quite a spectacle. After eight minutes, of course, you thought: against an Italian team, the game is basically over. But we fought our way back into it and also dominated the game until the 75th minute. If we had won it, it would have been deserved. With Arsenal and now Roma, we’ve faced two top European opponents, so we’re heading into the Super Cup against Bayern with a good feeling.”

Niko Kovac: “It was a great game for the spectators. But we didn’t start well. In the first eight minutes, we just weren’t there at all, switched off twice, but then showed a great reaction. Coming back from 0:2 against Italians is definitely not easy. And especially in the second half, we missed several chances. We would have liked to win, but that doesn’t really matter in preseason. From next week on, things start for real.”
Ole Book: “We started the game very badly and had major problems finding our defensive shape. Of course, you have to take into account that we haven’t been together at full strength for very long and that a few important defensive players are still missing. After that, we showed a lot of very good things, especially in attack. Now we have another week of training, the Super Cup, and then the Bundesliga. I think by then at the latest, we’ll be at top level.”
Filippo Mane: “Maybe it was still a bit better last week in London, but even so, we could see that we’re really training hard and are on the right track. We’re already at a pretty good level, even though some players are new. But they still bring a lot of energy and a lot of quality — both on the ball and off the ball. We’re ready for next week. We just need to work a little on our defending, but otherwise I don’t see that many differences between last week and this week. As for me, I feel that I’m in much better physical shape. Within one week, I was able to play two full 90 minutes.”
