Rouven Schröder: 'It was like street football'

Mainz sporting director Rouven Schröder was delighted with the quality of football displayed in his side's 2-2 draw with FC Köln in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

Köln went 2-0 up through Mark Uth and Florian Kainz before Mainz fought back to salvage a draw thanks to goals from Taiwo Awoniyi and Pierre Kunde.

"It was like street football, a great game," Schröder told Sky after the game and continued:

"Considering it was the first game in eight weeks, this was really good. The game was wide open. It was played at a good level right up to the end. I'd like to compliment all the players."
