Olympiacos match reaction

Here is the match reaction after Hoffenheim's 4-1 win against Olympiacos.

Markus Gisdol: The result doesn't reflect the game. I did see some passages of play that I wanted to, but I saw many that I didn't. We can take a great deal from the match, and we will be working on those things in the weeks ahead. I do believe we are on the right path but there is still a lot to do. We've got to be more clinical and more aggressive on the pitch.

Kevin Volland: We knew that Olympiacos would be a tough nut for us to crack. The weather would also demand more from us. We still wanted to play our game though. We wanted to turn defence into attack quickly, be aggressive against the ball; that was the task. In the first half, we struggled to do that, but we improved in the second. That's why we were deserved winners in the end. We've got work to do ahead of the first competitive fixture next week. That final pass has to be played more clinically. It's all part of our development.
