Spectacular victory for the DFCO last night in Concarneau! The Reds won 2-1 on the Breton pitch and put an end to the Breton curse.
The DFCO struck a big blow this Friday evening in Concarneau ! 2-1 victory on the lawn of the Breton clubrelegated from Ligue 2 and undefeated at home so far. A victory which puts an end to a curse because Dijon had not won in Brittany for eight years! And this victory is due, in part, to the spectacular goal of midfielder Hugo Vargas-Rios : his teammate Zoran Moco is still impressed by this beautiful and pure strike. “At the time, I didn’t realize it! I really realized when Hugo went to celebrate” he explains into Adrien Beria’s microphone. “It's a beautiful shot, fast, powerful and it gives us the victory! I didn't expect it, the shot was really pure. Everyone knows how to make a shot like that, but you have to take your chance: a day, I hope to put in a strike like that!”
The DFCO therefore rises in 4th place in the National ranking, 3 points behind leader Nancy ! Good news, but we shouldn't rejoice too quickly, says coach Baptiste Ridira: “In general, I am not someone who calculates, we do not have a schedule, with a number of points to take per match, to be able to be calm and not plan for nothing, and not putting unnecessary pressure on yourselfhe says into Adrien Beria’s microphone. “We don't have any this year from the management, so why bother? For the moment, I find that we are in the transition times, where we wanted to be, so no need to put pressure on yourself in relation to the ranking or the figures But in any case, we still have this objective, which I am pursuing on the mathematical aspect, which is to do better than the season before: last year. , we finished 4th so for now we are here where we want to be but the most complicated thing will be staying there until May!”
Lapierre bikes and their medal-winning champions!
THE cycling champions were numerous this week at the Lapierre group in Dijon! Two gold medalists from the Paris Olympics : Cassandre Beaugrand, Olympic triathlon champion, and Thomas Peyroton, Paralympic time trial champion. Also present was Jérôme Gilloux, recent enduro mountain bike world champion electric category, obviously on a Lapierre bike.
For him, it is a way of highlighting this very spectacular discipline: “People were looking at us a little out of the corner of their eyes, saying ‘but what are they doing with their electric bikes?’, but now there have been world championships for six years, and we see that every year, there are new drivers who have made the Olympics who are on the road, we have raced with big names and in the end, they cannot win so easily!he says. “So it shows that it's a discipline, that you have to train and that you have to ride the bike all year round to be able to claim a title. Even if you're good on a muscle bike by taking a turn at 5 km/h because it's uphill, but if you take the same turn at 20 km/h with a motor, it's really a separate discipline and you need several skills to be good on an electric bike , and above all fast!”
