Bellingham, Little: We also need to adapt to this kind of weather, and our opponents can be proud of ourselves
In the second round of the Group F of the Club World Cup group stage, Dortmund defeated Mamelodi 4-3. In an interview after the game, Dortmund midfielder Bellingham Jr. said that the team still needs to adapt to such weather.
Bellingham Jr. said: "This game is very tough, I have to say that. The opponents are really strong - they are very good. They can be proud of themselves in this climate. This weather is brand new to us and we need to adapt. It is indeed a very tough game, but this victory is crucial to us."
"I am very proud of my goals. I have practiced such shots as a kid and in countless training sessions in Sunderland. Although not the exact same way of shooting, as a midfielder, we have to be well-versed in the back row to the edge of the penalty area and finish the goal. It is a skill we have to be mastered. If you can score such goals frequently throughout the season, everything will be very smooth."
