The Bayern Munich defender has insisted that his side is eager to win the German Cup as they take on Borussia Dortmund for the third time this season.
The Bavarian giants are targeting to win the UEFA Champions League and the German Cup this season. The Munich based outfit is up against Chelsea in the Champions League final at the Allianz Arena whereas they will take on Borussia
Dortmund in the Cup final.
Badstuber claimed that Bayern certainly want to win the Cup this time around. He admitted that it will be a great way to avenge the defeat at the hands of the Borussians in the league. Bayern have been unable to win against Jurgen
Klopp’s side in the last four games and have lost all of them.
The German international insists that his side can win the game as they have been in sensational form in the past few weeks. However, he admitted that the additional pressure of the Champions League final could go against his side.
“Naturally, we want to win the cup. First of all, you always want to win a final, and second, we play Dortmund. The stadium will be divided half and half among the fans. We want to set a few things right and win the final,” he
was quoted as saying in an interview.
On the other hand, the central defender claimed that it is a great achievement for his side to reach the final of Europe’s premier club competition. He added that the reaction has been brilliant as the fans are right behind their
team.
“It was unbelievable and crazy. We had text after text, people came up to me in the streets and congratulated me. The city is in uproar, because everyone's looking forward to the final and they’re proud of the club. It's really
impressive and I never thought the reaction would be so extreme,” he concluded.
Holger Badstuber has played a total of 48 games for Bayern Munich this season and has been the club’s most consistent player. The defender will, however, miss the Champions League final against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 after receiving a booking
