While Farke was full of praise for his players’ commitment and performance, he stressed that the squad will not get carried away, insisting their focus remains on maintaining momentum and fighting until the end of the 2025–26 campaign.

"The mentality and the work ethic and the unity and the spirit in the dressing room of these lads is really second to none, and I'm just proud of what they deliver at the moment,” he said. 

"I said before the game, twelve points to fight for, but now we have the first three under our belt. We also want to win the following nine.

"Even if we should be mathematically safe before the last game day, then we would fight for each every point. And we want to finish as strong as possible in order to enjoy also the last game, to give our supporters more to cheer about."
