The German midfielder assessed the emotions he experienced in his last game at the Bernabeu on Real Madrid television. “It's not easy, I can only thank Real Madrid, the club, my teammates and the stadium. .”
Tony Cruz (34) explored those feelings. “You come in with a different feeling, you know it's the last game. I want to enjoy it as much as possible and I really enjoyed these 85 minutes because I've always enjoyed playing here. You play here every two weeks, but you notice it's special, and I'll notice it's special for years to come“.
German explained why he was emotional when he was transferred. At first he was silent, but finally the tears left him. ““I was strong until I saw my kids and it killed me.”.
Likewise, he led the union along with all his colleagues. “It's a special team, it's a good team, everyone has always given me the respect I deserve. They're good people, very good, and I felt very comfortable in this team.”
And, as it couldn't be otherwise, the man from Greifswald already has his mind set on Wembley. So he announced his retirement soon. “I wanted to make it official before this match so that I can forget about this problem from tomorrow and I can go the best way possible, which is by winning the title.“.
