The fortunate win at Dynamo Dresden while short-handed and after a penalty was saved has completely faded into the background for Hertha coach Stefan Leitl. After the scandalous evening with two interruptions to the game due to pyrotechnics and a pitch storm, he finds it difficult to put his Hertha's 1-0 win into context.
"I was asked, what outweighs everything? I'm happy for my team. I'm happy that we won the game, because it's about the sport. Everything else has no place on the soccer pitch. It's very disappointing for soccer Germany what unfortunately happened here in Dresden tonight," said Leitl.
The Hertha coach added: "Two great clubs, a great stadium, the conditions are almost perfect to enjoy an evening of soccer, then something like this."
