Max Meyer: We’ll enjoy it today, but that’s it — schalke04.de

It was a difficult match. It looks like a comfortable enough win on the scoresheet, but it was very different out there on the pitch. Hamburg got stuck in and were dangerous going forward. They’re a lot further down the table than they deserve to be in my opinion, and we kept that in our heads going into the game.
