The manager of the Submarine believes the game got better and better for the Yellows in the BayArena (0-0): \u201cIn the first half they dominated and we found it difficult to play. We avoided taking risks too much. But in the second half we did much better, we controlled them and caused them many problems with some clear chances\u201d. According to Marcelino, the competitiveness showed by his team is well worthy of praise: \u201cI\u2019m very satisfied and proud of the work my players put in. We\u2019ve played many consecutive matches now and sometimes the legs can go. Our level of competitiveness makes me proud. I don\u2019t think we got through comfortably. We beat a great team because defensively we were solid and in attack we created what we needed to. The success is all down to the players\u201d. With regard to the return of Sergio Asenjo to the goal after 11 months on the side lines with a right knee injury, Marcelino only had praise for the goalkeeper: \u201cI didn\u2019t have any doubt about who to put in goal. Sergio is a solid keeper, with a lot of experience and he\u2019s been training very well. He hadn\u2019t played before because Alphonse was playing very well, but he\u2019s been ready to play\u201d. Marcelino would prefer to avoid drawing the other Spanish teams in this Friday\u2019s draw. \u201cThe two favourites are Borussia Dortmund and the defending champions Sevilla. And all the other teams are great as well. I wouldn\u2019t like to draw a Spanish team.
