They have good strikers who constantly create scoring opportunities, press high up the pitch, and generally have a lot of passing sequences in their game. We have to defend with the same passion that we showed in the last two matches. Darmstadt is on a very good run, as the game against Schalke demonstrated. They will demand everything from us.“
