Bruno Irles: “May Saint-Malo not make too many missteps. The most consistent team will go to the end”

The coach of the Girondins de Bordeaux, Bruno Irlesshowed a lot of ambition in Saint-Malo in the second half, by bringing in two offensive players, in order to win this meeting. Unfortunately, it came down to a few centimeters, but everyone saw that Bordeaux were already well established in terms of play, but also that they had caught up physically.

In Sud Ouest and L'Equipe, the Bordeaux coach returned to this draw in Saint-Malo, while looking ahead to the rest of the season.

“There is the physical aspect, and the mental. It wasn't easy at half-time, with the leader who was 11 points ahead at that time, but they came back with the desire to turn the match around
[…] We didn't put enough weight in the axis […] But against the best in this Championship, my players rose to the occasion with their weapons of the moment and were on target. My team will be there all season. Tonight we are frustrated, but frustrated also means happy. Because, from my point of view, we deserved better. We intend to keep this rhythm and this desire. May Saint-Malo not make too many missteps. The season is still long. The most consistent team will go to the end.”
