A defeat is a defeat if you don't learn from it.
If you learn from it, it's a very, very important information.
And obviously in football, we have a lot of opportunities to get beat and opportunities to learn from it.
But this was the biggest relief in my life, not happiness.
I was just pure relief.
The pressure was mounting.
I was crazy.
Not only myself, nobody, not from outside, I don't know even nobody outside, well thought.
But to make it happen that year, that was really special.
It's not that I knew that always, but we spoke about very early what made me the person I am.
These people, of course, mom, dad, my faith as well.
And I knew always.
that I'm not here to get everything.
I'm here to give everything.
So that doesn't help in the moment when you fail for a point.
But in the general understanding as a person, of course it helps.
So I'm not surprised
that I fail.
I don't see myself as a constant winner in my mind.
I see myself as a constant trier.
