Hecking applauds 'completely focused' Wolfsburg

The coach reminded his Wolfsburg side that it must refocus on qualifying for the UEFA Champions League after reaching the DFB-Pokal final.

Wolfsburg coach Dieter Hecking said his side was "completely focused" as it thrashed Arminia Bielefeld 4-0 on Wednesday to reach the DFB-Pokal final.

Maximilian Arnold scored a brace, while Luiz Gustavo and Ivan Perisic also got on the score sheet against third-tier Bielefeld, as Wolfsburg advanced to just the second DFB-Pokal decider in the club's 69-year history.

Hecking said his team executed his game plan perfectly, before looking ahead to Wolfsburg's league fixture against Hannover, which could see the Lower Saxony-based club clinch a spot in next season's UEFA Champions League.
