Hormadi Anglet in search of redemption in Grenoble

This is the final stretch for latecomers before Christmas. But Hormadi has already played Santa Claus on the ice of Briançon, Friday evening, with many gifts offered to the Red Devils (6-1). A heavy defeat, the fourth in a row in the championship, which somewhat dampens the usually festive atmosphere at the end of the year.

“It was bad, we didn’t show up, we didn’t want to win,” says Arnaud Faure. The score may have been expensive, but the desire was not there. We came back to 2-1 without playing extremely well, but it wasn't enough. Briançon had more desire, they skated more. There is no miracle cure. We need to wear overalls again, skate more, win more duels. There we need points. »

14 consecutive victories

is not necessarily the best opponent to gain points. League leader Magnus remains on a series of 14 consecutive victories in all competitions. It’s a match that looks like a mission impossible for the Angloys, stuck in tenth place with 24 points, 49 points behind the Brûleurs de Loups…

“It’s the best team in the championship,” assures Arnaud Faure. If we show up like we did in Briançon, it risks being long and painful. Paradoxically, when we play big, we are better. It doesn't mean we're going to win, but it motivates. There, we have to play like starving people, not come across as two of spades, and above all be proud of ourselves at the end, regardless of the result. »

“Let’s get off our ass”

The captain of the Basques does not hide his concern about the negative spiral that the team is going through. “The better things go, the more matches we play, and the fewer there are left to catch up,” continues Arnaud Faure. We try to stay positive, but we have to adjust our sights and find a positive spiral. What's frustrating is seeing the good matches we've had, like against at home (4-0), and everything we do wrong takes precedence over our successes. We have a good understanding in the group, but now we have to get back into it 100%. »

The situation is all the more tense as Briançon, direct competitor for maintenance, comes back to three points but with three games in hand. “There are still meetings, but we cannot continue to say that to ourselves,” concludes Arnaud Faure. We need to resolve the issues and get off our ass. Already, it's starting against Grenoble. Play a full match, over 60 minutes, and don't lower your head, no matter the score. We have to react, we have to show that we have pride and that we are proud to wear this jersey. »
