Grimaldo: Punishment is always good for the opponent, but we are united and worthy of victory

September 13th, after defeating Frankfurt 3-1, Leverkusen defender Grimaldo said in an interview that he was very happy that he had seized two opportunities today.

About people's comments that you play a free kick like a penalty

- well, it's not exactly that. If it was a penalty, it would be great. But as I said, I was glad that I took two opportunities today. The most important thing is to help the team, and I did it today.

Regarding the difficulties faced by a team when a player is sent off

- We have ten people to fight, and it is always difficult to play one less person, especially when the scores are very close. We had to endure the pain, and then, we were only nine people left. I think a lot of things happening on the court are very strict, and the referee's penalty is always good for the opponent. But I think we are united and work together to defend in a holistic way, and I think we deserve this victory.
