"It shows that everything can happen in football. "If you play at this level, you need a top performance. That will be the case in the semi-final. "We are now in the semi-finals in the Champions League and in the DFB-Pokal. We have to go a bit further. "In the semi-finals there are no favourites. We have to see who we get tied up with and then prepare well. There are only good teams left."Robben conceded it was not a vintage Bayern performance but the Bundesliga champions rarely lost control of the action. "From the outside, maybe 2-1 away felt as if it was almost done but we knew that they have a good team," he added."In the first half we had some trouble in midfield. Then they have quality and they can play. "They had a few chances. In the end we had more chances, but what was missing was a goal. We should have scored a goal."</blockquote>
