The head coach of Borussia Dortmund Nuri Sahin spoke about the victory over Belgian Brugge (3:0) in the match of the 1st round of the Champions League. The official website of UEFA quotes the 36-year-old specialist.

“It was important to start with a win against a strong opponent away from home. There is nothing better than a confident win at the start of the Champions League. It gives the right momentum for the whole distance.

It was a good match, with attacks going both ways. Both teams had a hard time. Brugge is a strong team that forces you to give your all. In turn, I liked how we moved the ball between the lines and our play in the final third. We were dangerous throughout the match and due to this we managed to press the opponent.

In the end, considering all our changes, I think we deserved to win,” said Shaheen.

The next match in the Champions League will be played by Borussia D against Celtic. The game will take place on October 1, at 22:00 Kyiv time.
