In the program Jour de Foot on Canal+ FootEric Besnard, journalist, spoke about the season of Girondins de Bordeaux who are in National 2. The Bordeaux club will face Stade Rennais for the 1/32 finals of the Coupe de France.
« This weekend, it's time for the Coupe de France. There will be posters like Saint-Etienne – Marseille, Lens – Paris Saint-Germain or Bordeaux – Rennes. Where is this Bordeaux about which we have finally talked less since last summer? They are in National 2. […] 10-12,000 people in National 2, that seems completely crazy! We hope that Bordeaux will improve. Bordeaux is above all a state of mind, and it is obviously the story of Andy Carroll, who was the biggest transfer in the Premier League at one point. »
The consultant Geoffroy Garétier took stock of the situation of Navy and White in the championship:
« Bordeaux is currently third in its National 2 group behind Saint-Pryvé and especially Saint-Malo, the undefeated leader. Bordeaux has a game in hand. If they win it, it would put them seven points behind Saint-Malo with 17 games still to play. So obviously there is time. We can imagine that Saint-Malo will not hold its own. What is interesting with Bruno Irles' Bordeaux is that it remains on a series of 15 matches without defeat between the championship and the Coupe de France. »
