David Hytner was at Wembley tonight, and his report is in. Here it is. Congratulations to Real Madrid, commiserations to Borussia Dortmund, and thanks to you, dear reader, for sticking with this MBM. Nighty night!
An extremely gracious Edin Terzic speaks to TNT. “It is difficult … it is very tough to find the right words …. performance-wise we showed a great game … but then we also found out why they became champions for the 15th time … they’ve been so effective … it was something we missed … the proud thing is we gave a really good game … we showed everybody we were here to win, not to play a game … we were very close … small things missing … but congratulations to them … to keep this hunger to win again, you see why they are the true champions … this is a proud moment … we brought nearly 100,000 people from Dortmund to London … it was a fantastic journey … to be honest it’s also a bit empty inside as it was a great opportunity and unfortunately we did not make it … now we keep the belief high, the doubt must not take over … everything in life starts with a belief … no room for doubts … I said the same thing to Jude as I said to Erling Haaland, that I was proud to be their manager … I was there when they won their first title in their career when we won the German cup in 2021 … but I was quite sure I wouldn’t be around when they won the Champions League … Erling did it last season, but unfortunately I was here when Jude won it! … it’s a very proud moment for him, so congratulations to him and the whole family.”
