Stuttgart head coach Huub Stevens has reminded his side that they must not drop their focus even if they have almost ensured Bundesliga survival this season.

Stevens said that until his side secure the points they need to stay up they have not achieved his goals, which means that they cannot yet concentrate on other teams' results.

"If we slacken off even by 1%, we'll be punished," he told Bundesliga.com.

"We haven't achieved anything yet, we need to focus on earning more points, not looking at how other teams are doing."

Stevens is Stuttgart's third coach this season.
