I think everyone knows what the pressure is like in this opening match. We played with a very high intensity. The two quick goals helped the whole team a lot.

This is only the first win, there is still a long way to go. The whole team had some problems in the second half, especially in defense, but we will quickly overcome them, aiming for the highest goal of the tournament. EURO 2024 is a special tournament and the German team cannot make mistakes."
