In the opening match of the Euros on June 15 at 03:00, Germany secured a convincing 5-1 victory over Scotland. After the game, Toni Kroos, who started for Germany, spoke to Sky Sports Germany.
Toni Kroos said, “I think we achieved what we set out to do. We wanted a good start, and in the end, we got it. We never allowed Scotland to get into the game and won comfortably. We worked for a good start, which gave us confidence in our home Euro opener.”
“But Scotland was clearly not at their best, and the result was decided after the red card. We just went through the motions from there. Obviously, scoring early helped our cause as well.”
“I’m not sure if we’re fully in our groove after the first match, but if we bring this level into the next game, we can say we’ve found our rhythm. Our next opponent is at least twice as strong as Scotland. Only if we beat Hungary can we say that the German team is one of the favorites.”
Germany will face Hungary on June 20 at 00:00.
