Union Berlin coach Bo Svensson was not totally deflated after his team lost 3-0 to Bayern Munich, but he was not overly thrilled, either.
“Congratulations to FC Bayern for their well-deserved win. I’m happy with the first half. We didn’t concede much, which sounds strange when the score is 2-0. But you need the game to run smoothly to get something out of it. We then committed an unnecessary foul when we conceded the first goal and the second goal was simply world class. It was difficult in the second half. My team gave it their all, I can’t blame them,” said Union Berlin coach Bo Svensson (as captured by FCBayern.com).
After being dominated for 90 minutes, Union Berlin captain Christopher Trimmel was resigned to the fact that his squad just is not at the same level as Bayern Munich.
“The bottom line is that we can live with it because Bayern are the favorites, have incredible quality and that’s just how it happens. It takes a perfect day. A bit of luck at the back and you have to be ice-cold up front. I’ve personally managed that once before, but this is an exception. In the end, you can only congratulate Bayern. The pressure is too great to be able to defend everything,” said Trimmel.
Union Berlin will now move on to next week in the Bundesliga when a date with SC Freiburg awaits.
