Ricken: "We remain the hunter" | OneFootball

Lars Ricken on the ups and downs during the 90 minutes in Munich:"In particular during the second period, of course. Then we all saw what makes this match so fascinating. It was up and down. You do then also need some luck of course and an extremely good goalkeeper. But on the other hand, we could have also won with the shot from Pascal (editor's note: Groß) at the end."

…on the situation in the league:"We put ourselves on the right track with the matches against Freiburg and against Mainz. Lots of things were already going in the right direction beforehand too. We remain the hunter and must stay sharp and on the lookout. The matches against Gladbach, Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg will show what the point is worth."

…on the team's extreme performance fluctuations:"There are certainly one or two explanations, but that's not for now; it's for later."

…on the home games next week:"I want a victory against Barcelona and against Gladbach too. Barcelona is important, even though progression would be one of the biggest miracles in the history of Borussia Dortmund. But the stadium is sold out again; we have to give it everything we've got. And then of course at home to Gladbach at the weekend too. We can overtake Gladbach with a win." (br)
