FC St. Pauli

Aziz Bouhaddouz: "We were aggressive from the outset and deserved to win the game. We coped well with the conditions. The competition for places following the winter signings has made us better. We're taking each game as it comes at the moment and today's win was enormously important for that."

Bernd Nehrig: "It didn't feel right whenever I started to sprint and so it was better to go off. If you can't carry on, someone else steps in and gets on with the job. We're enjoying every moment – but no more than that. Tomorrow we start our preparations for the next crunch match. Sixteenth place is a snapshot, it's where you are on the final day that counts. If we're over the line then, we can celebrate."

Sören Gonther: "You could see how much we wanted it from the opening minute. If someone gets injured, another one steps in and continues where his predecessor left off, like Buchti did today. The depth in the squad is pushing all of us at the moment. After the second goal I was convinced we would see it out."

Christopher Buchtmann: "We deserved to win thanks to a really good team performance. That was passion and fight from the first minute today. We battled really well, everyone was fully focused. In the end we could have scored another one on the counter. Keeping a clean sheet was much more important, however."

Marc Hornschuh: "It's a superb feeling to finally win at the Millerntor again. We tried to get into every tackle. We scored twice and that's something we can build on. We can celebrate for a bit, but tomorrow we recover and then we go again. We have three important games against immediate rivals ahead of us."

Waldemar Sobota: "We set out to get into the game through aggression and it went really well from the opening whistle. Today the better team deserved to win. We analysed Dynamo Dresden in training during the week – we knew we could attack them in the build-up. Thankfully that worked out well. For us it was about giving the fans something back for the superb atmosphere."

Philipp Heerwagen: "It wasn't an attractive game of football today, but it's three points that count. From my position in goal it was like watching a wild mob throwing themselves into battle. That's what we set out to do. When you look at your teammates after the final whistle and see the satisfaction on their faces, it just makes you happy."

Cenk Sahin: "Dresden are tough opposition, of course, but we've made good progress in recent weeks. Today we simply wanted it more than Dynamo did and were greedier in some situations. I'm happy to get the goal but taking the points at the Millerntor was much more important. That was an important step, today, but nothing more."

Marco Hartmann (Dynamo Dresden): "Unfortunately we didn't put into practice what we'd been working on all week. We were unsure of ourselves and played badly. You can't play football out there and you need other ideas. We didn't have any in the entire second half."

Andreas 'Lumpi' Lambertz (Dynamo Dresden): "We weren't able to play our game the way we had set out to do. We played too many long balls, and almost all the second balls fell to a St. Pauli player. That meant we were unable to do much going forward, when all's said and done we didn't have any proper chances. St. Pauli played really well and intelligently and punished our mistakes."
