“ASSE which was in decline is transfigured by Horneland”

Indeed, in theAfter Foot Sunday evening, Daniel Riolo returned to the performance of AS Saint-Étienne. The chronicler of RMC evokes the first quarter of an hour of the Greens who wanted to press hard and salutes the work ofHornland : “We are talking about Saint-Étienne which was completely in disarray which was taken over by a coach (Eirik Horneland, editor's note) two weeks ago who transfigured this team. We saw an excellent first quarter of an hour from Saint-Étienne with more play in the PSG area than the other way around. However, in ten minutes, PSG finished the match leading two to zero. At that time, for PSG to be taken over, it took a lot.

For me Saint-Étienne shows to what extent this coach has given him something, I don't know if it's about giving confidence to the players, telling them to dare things and play, but the activity of the players who are nevertheless a little technically limited apart from a handful. The way they managed to annoy PSG on many occasions this Sunday evening is very encouraging for Saint-Étienne. Now, from there to worry and to make a real opposition to PSG, which had released a kind of B team, hybrid. Is it because they have a Coupe de France match this week? (Facing Espaly, editor's note) Or the match against Manchester City which arrives in ten days?”
