Thuram: “We need to learn from this”

Marcus Thuram spoke to the media after the 2-2 draw with Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League. Borussia’s goalscorer discussed...

... his thoughts on the game: We played well on the whole, but we came up against an excellent side. Everyone knows that such a tough opponent doesn’t give in – they fight to the end. We saw that in this match. Unfortunately, we conceded two late goals, but I hope we can learn from this and do things better in the next game.

... his delayed celebrations for the second goal: I thought that I might just have been standing offside. We know what it’s like with VAR, too. I didn’t want to celebrate too early in case they intervened, but everything was fine and the referee gave the goal. Then I could celebrate. 

... targets for the upcoming games: We’ll keep going and work hard to improve. We’ll also obviously try to perform at our best in the upcoming games. After the six group games, we’ll see where we’re at and whether we’ve managed to progress or not. 

... his father Lilian Thuram, who needed 67 games to score a goal in the Champions League, as opposed to his son who has two in two: I didn’t even know until now that he even scored a goal in the Champions League, but I’m pleased for him! (laughs)
