Ilzer: "The team got their reward"

Alexander Prass: "We were well in the game from the start. It is of course bitter to start the second half like that, but the belief was always there. We created a lot of chances and then scored the equaliser. We need to optimise our game. The automatisms are working slightly better now. The coaching staff are not yet where they want to be but it's getting better and better. It was already very decent against Freiburg and today too."

Adam Hložek: "It was a hard game. We had many chances to take the lead. Our goal to make it 1-1 in stoppage time and the point were deserved. We have practised the long throw in the build-up to the goal in training. I'm delighted for the coaching staff and for us that it worked in the match."

Jacob Bruun Larsen: "We all know how difficult it is in Dortmund. This is a top international team. We made it difficult for them and I think that it is fair that we came away with a point. I'm delighted that I was able to help out as a substitute. We had a tough schedule and now we have a whole week of training to prepare ourselves for the first time in a long time. We want to win against Gladbach next week."

Christian Ilzer: "We played a good and at times even a very good game. The team got their reward for a good performance. The starting phase was very courageous. We kept the game very open. Nonetheless, we need to keep the opposition goalkeeper even busier and we need to be more clinical. It was a very good performance. We knew that we would also need the lads on the bench. It's a success for us; it gives us a boost. We hung in at the back and wanted to free ourselves as quickly as possible. The lads are embracing it well."

Nuri Sahin (Borussia Dortmund coach): "It was not good from us today from the first minute to the last. There's no explanation for it. You have to defend against that and win a game like that. Our positional play in the first half was not good. I didn't feel any real energy. Nonetheless, we took the lead and then have to win. Then nobody would talk about it any more either."
