After the semi-final triumph against RB Leipzig, Stuttgart coach Sebastian Hoeneß explained the course of the game. But suddenly he ran off.

VfB Stuttgart dreams of the fourth DFB Cupaltriumh in its club history. With a 3-1 victory over RB Leipzig, the Stuttgarters secured their move into the final of the competition. On May 24th, the Swabians will meet Arminia Bielefeld as a big favorite on May 24th.

VfB coach Sebastian Hoeneß presented himself accordingly after the game at the ZDF microphone. His team did exactly what they would have discussed before the game and rewarded themselves in the crucial phases, he analyzed. “In the phases that were difficult, we supported each other, defended them with a passion, set blocks and won important duels. I have to take my hat off to my team,” said Hoeneß.

“It is already a dream to go to Berlin and we will certainly want more,” announced the coach. Moderator Katrin Müller-Hohenstein then asked Hoeneß how the team could make it to take the euphoria from the DFB Cup into the upcoming Bundesliga game against VfL Bochum. In his answer, however, Hoeneß presented himself briefly: “I’ll worry about that,” he said. “I have to go to the photo now, is that okay?” He asked before leaving the interview flee.

The background: The Stuttgart team had gathered to a team photo in front of one of the gates in the stadium. Hoeneß didn’t want to be missing.
