As at VA in 2021-2022, Lucas Chevalier approaches all his matches in the same way. Even against Real.
If Lucas Chevalier was called up to the French team behind Maignan and Brice Samba, it is not only thanks to the withdrawal of the usual number 3 Alphonse Areola. The young LOSC goalkeeper in any case took the liberty of expressing this opinion himself on Sunday evening on Canal+, and he relies for this on the guarantees probably relayed in person by Didier Deschamps: “People can say what “They want to, but I was made to understand that I was selected because I had done good things.” To see if he will again be on the list for the month of March for the double confrontation with Croatia, in the quarter-finals of the League of Nations…
“The general public sees it more, but I naturally reproduce”
How did the revelation of the Mastiffs manage this first call-up to the A? “We try to be a little small, not to be noticed and to do everything well. But I've never been a problem in a group, it's always gone well, so I still try to 'be as natural as possible.' Obviously catapulted by his exceptional performances in the Champions League with Lille: “Everything I do in this competition has much more impact. You have to manage the emotional aspect of the match, the meeting, the stakes, the television. .. But I have always been a little carefree, so I naturally reproduce what I did in Ligue 2 in Valenciennes, what I have also been doing for two years in Ligue 1. The general public sees it more and that leads to dream a little more in my career, to move forward.”
At the collective level, Lucas Chevalier specifies that the qualification objective for the play-offs having officially been achieved for LOSC, the last two matches will only represent a bonus for Bruno Génésio's players. Particularly the next one in Liverpool, which could lead to an incredible top 8 directly qualifying for the round of 16… “No one expected us there. Me first, I want to believe in it, it will be difficult but at the same time In the end, we won't be disappointed, whatever happens.” And there will still be Feyenoord at home to conclude, which could be the real final to skip the play-off box.
