Laurent Brun: “It struck me, because he went the distance”

For Bordeaux Le Mag, the journalist Laurent Brun spoke about the sequence of matches for the Girondins de Bordeaux, who will play three matches in one week.

“It’s true that they never play every three days. But I think it's interesting. The dynamic is there, and I think that will help maintain it. Our friend Soufiane Bahassa, who is a very technical player, still had difficulty finishing matches. There, I found it constant. There was some waste, but he fought the whole time without cramping! It was a bit of a witness to what is happening today. He has this will, this self-sacrifice. It struck me, because he went the distance. The fact of continuing will perhaps tire them, but they are in nine matches in a row in all competitions without defeat, which means that the dynamic is established. It can stop, it's sport, it's football, but this sequence will maintain that. And also, the technical staff knows how to manage that. Bruno Irles, Dado Prso and others know how to handle that. They handled it much higher. Maybe the players themselves don't necessarily know where they are going in weeks like this with three matches in eight days, but the coach and the technical staff know how to do it. So I have complete confidence in them. They will focus the sessions on recovery, rest, and small games. It can be considered that way.”
