Self-confidence strengthened

It was actually a game that was about nothing. The Werkself could lose with a three-goal difference to still advance to the next round, and it was also clear beforehand that the decision to win the group would only be made the following week in the home game against Prague.

But if you still win 3-2 in Nice, it can only boost the team's self-confidence, especially since we rotated a lot and well. The only reproach that can be made against the Werkself is the fact that we missed a lot of chances. But the victory was never in danger at any time.

I think yesterday's game also put an end to the discussion about the need for a VAR once and for all. A clear foul on Diaby in the penalty area and a missed goal by Schick were clear mistakes that would certainly have been corrected by the VAR.

All in all, it's time to return home quickly and healthy and to concentrate on Sonntag and Schalke. It will be hard enough, even if they are at the bottom of the table.
