"We're playing against BVB, that in itself is fantastic. We don't define ourselves by superlatives or compare ourselves with BVB. We are Darmstadt 98 and that's how we'll be playing tomorrow at 6:30 p.m ."

"We can hardly wait for things to start again tomorrow and for us to be able to improve our situation in the Bundesliga. That's the task. We expect every player to improve their performance. At Borussia Dortmund we want to have good competition in every position."
