— We all saw wonderful football today, especially from Borussia. It was intense football, with incredible pressing. I am, of course, disappointed that we were eliminated, but today we delivered the first defeat to Barcelona in 2025, and that says a lot. We can be proud of ourselves, — said Niko Kovac.
