Niko Kovač [Dortmund]: "It was a spectacle. So sensational to watch. I have to say I enjoyed it. Let’s not kid ourselves – the top tier at the moment is Bayern Munich and PSG. All other clubs in Europe are watching with a lot of interest to see what's needed to get there".
Cesc Fàbregas [Como]: “I think I watched the best game of my life as a football fan. I enjoyed it, it showed where modern football is going. I learned a lot from this match. It was a pleasure for everyone”.
Pierre Sage [Lens]: “We were completely on the edge of our seats, glued to our screens. I’m one of those people who prefers to see a 5-4 scoreline rather than a 1-0 one. When you see the level of these teams and the individual level of each player, you realize how high the bar is set”.
Habib Beye [Marseille]: “This football inspires everyone. Everyone who saw this spectacle... There are no words”.
Franck Haise [Rennes]: “I thought to myself: what's going on? Even though you could expect that crazy things can happen with the two best teams in the world, with exceptional players everywhere, there's a difference between expecting something and actually having it happen.. I was sitting on my sofa and I fully enjoyed it”.
