Sommer said that Inter were clearly the favourites, but that “football remains football” and that he knew his team’s qualities. At 37, he highlighted the presence of younger, less‑experienced players who could become an asset. “We are well prepared and it will be an interesting match,” he added.
Club Brugge will have to deliver a perfect performance to hope for points. “We learn from each match, we delivered a good performance but made some mistakes,” the goalkeeper recalled. He stressed the need for perfection in the Champions League and said he wants to deliver a better performance.
