German national team midfielder Ilkay Gundogan spoke about his team's advancement to the quarterfinals of the 2024 European Championship.
The midfielder's words were reported by the UEFA press service:
A very tight match, and we got a bit lucky. Denmark defended very well throughout most of the game, but we deserved the victory. It was a great atmosphere when the national anthem was playing, you could really feel the crowd ready to support us. I expected nothing less than this from Dortmund.
