00:00 Everyone is insane in the first half, unbelievable,

00:04 just, I would say, not to defend, outstanding, really good.

00:08 Why do we speak about David?

00:11 Obviously because he has so many situations where he missed.

00:14 But his first game, since we count,

00:17 a player had hit the crossbar four times in a game,

00:21 and I don't think you are in his boots how that feels.

00:24 So, missing a penalty, and you could see it at half-time,

00:29 he was really upset with himself.

00:32 Then missing the header from close range.

00:38 But then setting up a goal, he stays in the game.

00:44 There was never a striker who barely could walk,

00:49 and everybody asked, "What is he doing?"

00:51 And it became then the final picture of himself.

00:55 But this is the way how it works,

00:57 it's just crazy that he creates that many.

00:59 Imagine for a second he would take them all.

01:03 The numbers would be absolutely insane,

01:05 to an extent where you wouldn't understand it anymore, so it's normal.

01:08 For us it's important, because we score four goals,

01:10 who cares if we could have scored a fifth or a sixth,

01:12 it's really not important, we need to win football games.
