Thomas Muller delighted with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Turkey-c3026 win; aims for perfect record in qualifying round
Striker Thomas Muller has expressed his delight on winning against Turkey on Friday and stated that the team played some brilliant football. He added that the side is hopeful to win the last game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Belgium-c2850 next week and keep
the perfect record in the Euro 2012 qualifying round for the first time in the history.
Die Mannschaft downed the Turks 3-1 at the Turk Telekom Arena to make it nine wins out of nine in the qualifying campaign so far. Bayern Munich trio Mario Gomez, Thomas Muller and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Bastian-Schweinsteiger-c7374 scored to secure all three
points for the visitors.
Muller hailed his side after the win and insisted that it became very difficult for the home side when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 played the natural game. He admitted that the start was a relatively slow one but the team picked up and dominated possession
after that.
The Bayern Munich striker added that it was an impressive performance again and heaped praise on his teammates for showing the determination to win.
“We did not have as much possession of the ball initially. We already knew that Turkey would struggle when we played our game and moved the ball quickly. That tactic worked for most of the game very well. Only at the beginning
did we have a few problems but once we made it 1-0, it was quiet in the stadium and we could understand each other,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The Bavarian remained hopeful that the Germans win against Belgium next week and keep the perfect record in the qualifying campaign for the first time in history. He said that the team wants to end the campaign on a high and make
it ten from ten in the end.
“It is important that we deliver on Tuesday for our fans. I hope we break the record but if not, we will still continue to live happily, knowing we already have our ticket for the European Championships,” he concluded.
Germany will face Belgium on Tuesday at the Esprit Arena in Dusseldorf.
