“Lyon put a lot of pressure on us and got behind our backline with their fast players. They also had some chances. We had a bit of luck at the beginning. Afterwards, we got into the game well and led 2-0 at halftime. In the end, Lewy made it 3-0. Lyon was very aggressive, they wanted to win,” Gnabry was quoted as saying on the club’s official website. 

“You can’t always defend everything. We’re usually very strong at the back, upfront as well. We knew about the space behind their back five and tried to get in behind time and time again. That was the key to success, especially in the first half. We’re desperate to win the treble, and we’re going to give it our all on Sunday to win the final,” he added.
