After the weekend match, Marco Reus emphasized that the victory against the "Werder" Bremen team was not as easy as it seemed to many.
The forward was the brightest star in Saturday's meeting and scored two goals. However, despite that, Reus insists that his team had problems in the match, despite having a significant advantage in ball control.
“It was a very tough match for our team. We played patiently and pushed forward, but we didn't play at the necessary speed. During halftime, we agreed that the team needed more strength in attack and the ball needed to move faster. This match was much tougher than it may have seemed, but we played well,” - the German spoke to the media.
After this victory and the points lost by the "Bayern" club on Friday, Dortmund's team is five points behind the league leaders. However, Reus believes that his team cannot currently think about the achievements of Pep Guardiola's players.
“If you are in second place, you always strive to rise to the first, but Bayern is still too far ahead. Now we have approached them, but everything can change very quickly in the Bundesliga championships. We just have to focus on our game,” - concluded the 26-year-old player in conversation with journalists.
