The Bundesliga side crushed the Scottish champions, with Karim Adeyemi’s hat-trick the highlight of a 7-1 trouncing.

Can you shut up shop a little bit and steady the flow of the game for five minutes? “I think all in all it’s a sort of sobering night for everyone. Never nice or acceptable to lose a game of football 7-1, but we are where we are and we are probably where we expected to be after two games, so we don't have to go nuclear on it. “It's a bad result, but we started the season really well and we just need to stay together.” <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate></div></body>
