Raymond Domenech never misses the opportunity to take a little dig at his neighbor from Saint-Etienne. At the end of the meeting between ASSE and OL, the former coach of the France team, above all ex-Lyon, returned to the performance of the two teams on the set of L'Équipe du Soir . Excerpts.
The rivalry exists even on television sets during a Derby which, without exciting the whole of France, at least brings a little relief to a very dull Ligue 1… In this game, Raymond Domenech is not the last to add a few peppers to the dish! Present in the show “L'Equipe du Soir”, he returned to the Lyon victory and did not fail to launch a little provocation aimed at the Greens:
“It's always a pleasure to see this match again. I'm speaking as a Lyonnais, not really as a technician. We're happy that Saint-Étienne is in the first division for this derby. It's a crowd in both stadiums , the atmosphere and that’s six points at the end of the year. We’re still happy, that’s what interests us.”
R. Domenech: “The main thing, the derby, you have to win it!”
“When we are from Lyon, today, you can tell me what you want. The main thing, the derby, you have to win it! We can say what we want. They weren't flamboyant, we must recognize it. Saint-Étienne had situations, it was not a euphoric match but we had to win it and Lyon won it.
We will console ourselves with the words of the former Saint-Etienne playing master, Jean-Michel Larqué. On RMC Sport, he then responded bluntly to the question of whether he would have hired Domenech in 2022 so that he could save ASSE from relegation: “Not only is he from Lyon but above all, he is rubbish.”
