Print? Hradecky: It's a luxury if you can play for the Champions League

on

On Monday, Lukas Hradecky were still opponents with Bayer 04 and Eintracht Frankfurt (2-0). On Thursday, however, the Finnish national goalkeeper is looking forward to his former teammates when the Hesse fight for the European League final in the semi-final second leg.

"I wished everyone lucky. On Thursday I am again Eintracht fan," explains the 32-year-old, who acted as number 1 in Frankfurt from 2015 to 2018 and emphasizes the special mentality of Eintracht in the cup competitions: "They are one Real knock-out team, ”praises Hradecky.

A quality that Bayer developed this season neither nationally nor internationally in the cup competitions. Both in the DFB Cup (K.-O. in the 2nd round against second division KSC) and in the Europa League (from the round of 16 against Atalanta Bergamo), the Werkelf was not fully there at the crucial moments.

hradecky: "Print is our good friend"

In the league, on the other hand, the team of Gerardo Seoane apparently got the curve despite the personnel position that had been tense for weeks. On Saturday at 1899 Hoffenheim, Bayer can already ensure the qualification for the premier class. Provided that the Werkself remains nerves in this first of two matchball games. But Hradecky is not worried about that. "With pleasure" he goes into the last two games, emphasizes the goalkeeper. "Pressure is our good friend," he says and recommends an opposite perspective: "It is a luxury if you can play for the Champions League places. It looks good. Now we have to play with even more joy in Hoffenheim, To make the qualifications clear as soon as possible. "

Positive thinking is the order of the day. With a victory in Sinsheim, Bayer would certainly be in the premier class - regardless of the results of the competition. Eintracht is said to get the penultimate step behind it two days earlier on Thursday.

Hradecky wants to meet his ex-club at the highest international level. "I hope that we only qualify for the Champions League and that both teams in the Champions League will reunite through a Frankfurt victory in the Europa League."
