How important Emil Forsberg is for Leipzig, on Wednesday in the semifinals of the DFB Cup, when the Swede in the detention time passed the ticket for Berlin. “I’m not a header,” he says himself about his special gift. “I do not have to train that, but it just comes to me when it’s needed. If I have to make a goal with your head, then I’ll do it.”

Especially when players come from the bank, as he in the cup, the mental way is very important. “You have to know that if you get in, you can make the difference. I can only show that I can love these great games and you can decide. I’ve already proven that a couple of times.”
But Forsberg did not forget the serious start to the season. “The first six months were difficult for everyone,” says the 30-year-old over time with coach Jesse March. “For player and club it was not a good time. It was like in a roller coaster.”

For the new coach Forsberg is full of praise. “The coach has brought us back to us,” he lets you look through and explains Tedescos Secret. “Each player has immediately felt that he is important again. This is quite important for a player, very important. That’s why we also turned many games through bankers. Everyone wants to show when he gets in.”
Even in the game preparation, things seem to have changed. “Since Domenico and his staff are here, we have always had a super match plan for each game and I’m sure we’ll have a good match plan for tomorrow.” He advises the absent coach on the press conference: “EMIL in turn and win” – even if he would actually be much rather in the starting eleven.

ForSberg feels more than ever the association and possibly remembered, which used to be very well, he pushes aside today. “If you are young, you have many dreams,” he says. Today he is quieter. “I have another three years contract, do not see me elsewhere and have goals with the club.”
After seven years he is a veteran in the club. “That makes me pride. We have great before and now title chances. I was almost at the whole journey, I have to stay natural.” He could even well imagine, even after his active career in the club, but that has time. “My goal is to play a long football.”
