Jeremie, very well done. How do you put into words a fifth game in a row with a late, late winner?<\/p>\n
It’s part of football, sometimes you score [in the] last minute. I’ve had a lot of last-minute [goals] in my career so far, obviously with Leverkusen. But the most important thing is that we won. I think we deserved to win. We were the better team, played really well. <\/p>\n
When late goals happen that often, it’s about more than luck, isn’t it? It’s about quality, perseverance, character…<\/p>\n
Exactly. In a match you never know when you’re going to score. Of course in football you’d like to score earlier but sometimes it doesn’t work like that. Like I said, it’s part of football. Sometimes you score late, sometimes you score early. It’s just like that. <\/p>\n
It was such a great start from the team, so were the boys frustrated in the manner that it sort of slipped away from them? <\/p>\n
Of course. I feel like when you’re 2-0 up, of course we want to keep the lead or score more. But it’s the Champions League, we’re playing Atletico Madrid, of course we can do better to stop it but it’s football. <\/p>\n
It feels like things are slowly starting to fall into shape as the link-up play is getting better and a lot of that is with your good friend Florian Wirtz at the heart of that. How much more is there to come from him?<\/p>\n
He’s just getting started. Obviously I’ve been with him for four years in Leverkusen, so I know what he can do. I’m seeing that. It’s coming. There’s a lot more to see from him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jeremie, very well done.
