Imperial in the goals to validate the victory and the first clean-sheet of the VAFC in National for three months against Orleans (1-0), this Friday evening, Mathieu Michel calls to savor while remaining fully focused on the lens. The experienced 32 -year -old keeper knows fragile balance and dynamics despite the good Valencienne pass.
The VAFC finally rewarded for his efforts
“This victory is good! She is a continuation of the Nancy match. We are on two very interesting matches, we feel a team that is hungry for victory, not to take and hurt the opponent. We show super important virtues in football, we may have returned to a little more humility. It's nice because we are rewarded. You have to savor because we also have very complicated moments, we start from far away. There is still a lot of work and a lot to work on. It must also be said when it is good and deserved, and it was this (Friday) evening. It is very good for the public who is still there, and for us because we will be able to continue to rely on these two good results against large stables. It is not trivial. It proves that when we work, we are rewarded. »»
Long -term collective work
“I think we also realized that we were able to do things well. When I arrived, I felt a team in doubt. When you are in a club as important as the VAFC, with an expectation and a craze as strong, everything is increased tenfold in the good and bad times. There were no cheaters, even in our work done before. There was just an awareness. It is not because we are Valenciennes that we must feel above the others, on the contrary. We have opponents who are hungry and who have quality. The first of the virtues in this championship is fight and self -denial. We show it today, we are rewarded. You have to keep this and especially not fall asleep. »»
Mathieu Michel nonrealed, finally
“Clean-Sheet is good as a goalkeeper, it deserves a good beer!” The work is done, we will go savor in the living room (smile). It's nice when you are a guardian. We feel the best defensively. I also try to do the work when there is, it's my job. I am lucky to have guys who work in front of me, even from Mathias (Oyewusi) in front or entrants. Everyone is there to work in the same direction, it's a kiffant. As if by chance, we are rewarded, there is no secret. »»
VAFC only at the start of its commando mission
“To last, you have to keep your values and not relax. It is a championship that is played a lot on envy and aggressiveness. We also have a little qualities. We do not type Nancy or Orleans if we have no qualities. You still have to work, stay in humility and have fun. There is a lot of fun, especially after such a match. »»
