Before flying to the French capital, Stroot warned against taking the opponent lightly. “We should never underestimate the number three from France. They dare to bring a lot of speed into the game against teams like Paris Saint-Germain or Lyon in order to create scoring opportunities. We are therefore expecting an opponent for whom we are preparing intensively have,” said the VfL coach. Midfielder Chantal Hagel made it clear: “We are positively excited. This is an extremely important game. We clearly want to get to the group stage, there is only one thing: win.”
