Bruno Irles: “The players don't give up. It was our base at the start of the season, it still is”

On TV7, the coach of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Bruno Irleslooked back on his team's victory on the Granville field last weekend.

“I congratulate them, because the players didn’t give up. At the 80^th minute, we still wanted to score, and they went to score. At the 90^thI also help them (with changes, editor's note) because I want them to get this victory. The draw wasn't enough for us, and they went for it. The players don't give up. It was our base at the start of the season, it still is. That doesn't hide all the shortcomings that there are for us, to take the advantage.

Then, it was the turn of the Bordeaux central defender,
Jean Grillotto evoke this meeting, him on whom a penalty was whistled in added time.

“Even if it’s hard, it feels good to find victory again. We were left with two defeats in a row (against Rennes in the Coupe de France, and Locminé in the championship, editor's note). The most important thing, and what must be remembered, is the three points taken, and the victory […] If I felt doubt at the time of the equalization at 90^th on a penalty? There was a little doubt of course. But we kept hope, and thanks to Nassim (Ranem), we were able to regain this victory (smile).”
