Even Dompé weighs in: BVB point 'a fair reward after recent weeks' | OneFootball

Jean-Luc Dompé almost never gives interviews. But after the last-minute draw against BVB, even the Frenchman spoke out.

After the emotional 1-1 draw against Borussia Dortmund, Jean-Luc Dompé appeared in the mixed zone for the first time in a long while. The 30-year-old winger usually takes great care to keep his public statements to a minimum. He recently made a rare exception for the Hamburger Abendblatt.

But after the thrilling events on late Saturday afternoon, Dompé couldn't help himself. In the preceding game against BVB, he once again proved his immense importance for HSV. With three shots, he led his team's shooting statistics. The black and yellow defense repeatedly prevented the success of his attempts only through last-second blocks.

Despite not scoring, Dompé was satisfied with his performance. “Dortmund has quality. It was a difficult game. But we fought until the end and took a point,” he explained after the final whistle. He particularly highlighted the support of the fans, which additionally motivated his team.

Dompé: “We had that one percent more luck”

For Dompé, this point also holds symbolic significance. “Recently, we have often played well but not scored. Today was the compensation for the last two to three weeks,” emphasized the Frenchman. The success was the result of belief in their own strengths, full commitment until the last second, and a bit of fortune. “Sometimes we just don't have the game luck. Today we had that one percent more luck. We take the point and are very happy,” Dompé continued.

The fact that he spoke up after a long time underscores how important the point against BVB was. This seems to apply to both the entire team and individual players.
