SB29: Thierry Henry had fun in Brest
After his team's defeat at Montjuic (0-3) yesterday, Eric Roy made a lucid observation: “We came across a team much stronger than ours, quite simply. We must also recognize that when the opponent is much superior, this is reflected in the score. Even if we still have regrets because we concede goals which are, in my opinion, avoidable. And then the regret too is not having lasted a little longer in the match. We saw it when we almost reduced the score: we could find a situation to put them in difficulty. I haven't seen the action again, but the offside shouldn't be huge. Afterwards, what to say? So much technical mastery in front, so many connections between the players. We feel that there are a good half of them who have been playing together for many years…”.
The name of Brest caused a hilarious sequence on the CBS channel for which Thierry Henry works. Indeed, Brest means breast in English, therefore breasts. The show's speakers, including presenter Kate Abdo, asked former defender Micah Richards, known for his giggles, not to laugh during the analysis of Henry and Jamie Carragher. Obviously, all the questions were two-way, like “Who would pay to see Brest?” », “Who likes Brest? », “Is Brest in good shape? “. Thierry Henry had this amusing response: “What we can say is that you don’t have to be big, you can be small and competitive.”
