Sage: “He set the bar very high tonight”
“It’s good because it creates a base for him, a benchmark tenure,” greeted Pierre Sage at a press conference. “We expected that from him because he always had very good starts and his matches when he was starting were a little more difficult,” he applauded. “It’s a good first for him in the context of a European match against a very good opponent and he really set the bar very high tonight.”
Regularly used in a dynamite role coming off the bench, with great success most of the time, Fofana therefore proves that he can be very useful from the kick-off. “The coach told me that I just missed scoring when I was starting too, being able to help the team. Today I helped the team and I hope continue like that,” said the main person concerned at the Canal+ microphone.
