If you had to cook for yourself and friends tonight, what would you make?
Salad with meat – I need protein after the match! Probably some potatoes with meat and vegetables.
How would you rate your cooking skills?
From 0 to 10? I’d say a 3.5. I used to cook four years ago when I lived alone in Berlin; I liked dedicating time to myself.
What is your guilty pleasure?
A dessert once in a while is crucial! Nothing special. I like salty sweets more; something like salted caramel works for me.
What do you eat before a match?
It depends on the time of the match.Usually something simple like rice, but when I have more time, I eat well.
And during the match?
I have electrolytes and gels to stay hydrated.Good hydration for energy levels.
Do you have a favorite restaurant?
I’m a big fan of sushi. We travel to manny beautiful cities, so Nobu is always a good option for me.
What is your favorite German dish?
A speedy meal for me would be to go and eat a German sausage or a kebab.
What food would you refuse to eat?
Oysters!
