“We created chances a lot better today that we usually do. Apart from that, I think we play very similarly, of how we currently have been playing so far. Unfortunately, our performances in recent weeks haven’t been back up with points of wins. Despite that, we showed it was worth to continue working hard,” said Schmidt.

The captain of the Werkself, Lars Bender, agree with Coach Schmidt about their offensive production. He said after the match that they deserved the win since they did a big effort and scored the chances.
