Benoît Marty (CCMBF coach):
“As for the result, it's the same scenario. But the matches here are not all the same. There, Tarbes was in front for 28 minutes. We did not enter this match well defensively. Our objective was to bring this match more into a defensive score, to control the rhythm. That's not at all what we did, we played too long at the pace of Tarbes. Afterwards, I think we performed extremely well. was penalized by the whistles in the third quarter and I admit that I don't really understand why throughout the match, Tarbes shot 27 free throws compared to 13 on average. a great match of skill today, but as we told the girls, we must not rely on that to hope to win. We must rely on our defense and today, we do not. did not protect our well racket We knew that Musa was almost unstoppable in one on one and we were unable to cut her off the ball or double her when necessary. Our room for improvement is there. This is our only salvation and we will work on it. But first, we're going to clear our heads a little because it's starting to get hard not to be rewarded for the work accomplished.”
François Gomez, Tarbes coach:
“It's an important victory for us because it allows us to arrive at the truce with a positive result and I don't remember that this has already happened for Tarbes. Chartres makes life difficult for all its opponents and has its place in the Women's League for many reasons. We knew that it was going to happen like that, that they had the knife to their throat and that they would not give up. didn't quite work out, but the girls did the job. We played well in attack, but we took too many points in the first half, 44, that's not normal. In the second half, it was better in defense and we were able to count on “MJ. ” and on the return of Endi Miyem who we had not yet seen at this level since she joined us. But we could have killed the match beforehand. “
