RB Leipzig won back-to-back German Cup titles with a 2-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in the final at Berlin's Olympic Stadium on Saturday, with Christopher Nkunku scoring one second-half goal and setting up Dominik Szoboszlai for the other.
After an entertaining but even first half, in which Leipzig's Timo Werner spurned a glorious early chance, Frankfurt looked to be on top but were stunned when Nkunku's strike took a huge deflection off Evan Ndicka in the 71st minute.
"Winning a title is always something great, the event itself anyway. We made so many people and ourselves happy. We do everything to experience such moments. It's a privilege to win a title like this with a club from my hometown. It's special for me and I thank the lads for that," Rose told ZDF TV after the match.
"A year ago we were the lucky winners, that's sport, you have to accept that. It's been two wonderful years for me and I'm happy to have been a part of it," he added. Frankfurt improved after the break and Mario Gotze put Kolo Muani through on goal before volleying straight at Janis Blaswich but Leipzig grabbed the opener against the run of play.
