National player David Raum has had to digest his quarter-final exit at the European Championship on home soil for a while. "It took a bit of time, I have to say. Especially because a lot of things came up after the game," said the defender from Bundesliga club RB Leipzig just over four weeks after the 2:1 defeat against Spain after extra time.
"That just helped, because it showed that we had achieved something after all. It was brutally bitter for us, but little by little we were happy about what we had achieved," said Raum.
