Berlins olympias study on 75000 seats remained unfilled just minutes before kickoff by our new nick and leverkusen would be vying for the german cup but for the 1st time ever before and the stands. With the match underway byron showed no signs of a hangover from last weeks but in this league title celebrations forcing leverkusen back line into last gasp to spending early on. A 15th minute collision put by an in prime position for a free kick.

Byron meanwhile had repeated last seasons domestic double despite the bizarre circumstances its one thing to do whether a sense of normalcy its by lifting your title or. I am a lame out one talking from davies for joins me now for even more days hals about one match that was this deserved to win bye bye im more than deserved but its starting to get so repetitive they just recently won the bonus league mind you rebecca 8 in a row and now the german cops i think a lot of new trolls fans in general just wanted to see anybody out to lift that trophy but like i said i and many deserved it and they were much better team and as good as by any make way out i have to also hear point out that live a coup isnt made things quite difficult for themselves as the report just showed you cant have your goalkeeper commit a mistake like that in a german cup final especially not against by a new nick and youre off a tap they have to be able to execute to be a lot more efficient and to take their chances and then of that happened as you just mentioned and of course we saw in the report is a key was a double the tape could they make it a triple with a champions like you know why not on the huns a flick this is us by un team is right now one of the best teams in europe right right now in everything that was missing from this team we saw in the honey flick in the 2nd half of the bundesliga and they have their chemistry back their identity is back their confidence is back and. The attack is so ruthless and also this team despite the corona break they are unbelievably fit on there is however back one concern and that is of course the blueness he just started earlier and theyre also finished sooner and the Champions League is starting again what is it at the beginning of august so some people are concerned that maybe their lack of game practice until then could pose as a potential problem well as a non beta will so but now of course there were many fans of this game because of the pandemic what was the atmosphere like there were no supporters i mean its definitely something to get used to i myself have covered so many german cup finals both inside and outside of the stadium and usually what you have is you have thousands of people come to this you have festivities stab start i was and i was in advance before the actual match and none of that was britain was so quiet yesterday so you do get the feeling that something is missing its as if almost i mean its really difficult to even find words to describe it but its as if youre watching football with the sound off but there is sound this is so strange for the players. And it is because Thomas Miller as well from by and unique he also said he was asked is exactly this question and he said that it was kind of sad being in this big stadium where you handed a trophy and the minute you lift it theres nobody there to cheer you on so its not the same i can imagine if they were useful thanks very much.
