Whoever opened the scoring after two short minutes of play last night in Saint-Etienne, Maghnes Akliouchespoke to the microphone of DAZN After Monaco’s victory against ASSE (1-3).
Maghnes Akliouche : “Yeah, we were all slammed at the end of the match since we gave a lot. In the end, we also felt fatigue and I think it’s a good sign too. The coach requires a lot of effort, also protecting the partner if he makes a mistake, it requires a lot of energy and if we are tired at the end it is also a good sign.
(On his goal) Staying at the second post, I think it’s something very important in football and that I worked. I was told a lot, today I did it and it paid, so it’s good. I have to continue this kind of thing. (…) I am an offensive element, I know that I must also bring to the statistical level and also help the team constantly. Sometimes you have to take responsibility and that’s what I did today (a goal, a decisive pass, editor’s note). (…) We have two big games left, for me we have no choice, we will have to win these two games and it is already starting next week with a big shock against Lyon.
This week, we talked a lot between us. We have executives who are very important and who help us on a daily basis with the staff too. We were given this positivity which is important throughout the week. This is what made us enjoy this evening. We knew that today we needed victory and it’s done, that’s good.”
