For Bordeaux Le Mag, the journalist Laurent Brun returned to the victory of the Girondins de Bordeaux against Saint-Pryvé Saint-Hilaire with a score of 2-0 last Saturday.
“Without disrespect to the opponent, they almost didn't exist offensively. This means that Bordeaux did well collectively, dominated collectively. Technically even. Physically, Bordeaux has reached a level at this level. There were fewer cramps, they were on the other side at the end of the match. We sense a Bordeaux collective that is really gaining momentum, and faster and faster. And technically speaking, there's not much to say. The Girondins had chances. It was a little sluggish in the first half. We played well in space, there was a fluid game going forward, but it lacked percussion, spark in the opponent's last thirty meters. On the other hand, in the second half, when Yanis Merdji returned in particular, we saw Bordeaux galvanized and attacking, attacking, attacking… There, the opposing team was hot. He could have scored two more goals from clear situations, which ended up on the crossbar of Diaby and Carroll. Yes, Bordeaux was still very good, and there we still feel that the carburation is progressive.”
