It was not Gijon, or Valladolid.
Until then undefeated in the Champions League after four days, Stade Brestois hit a wall on Tuesday in Barcelona (3-0). Faced with an impressive Barça, Ludovic Ajorque and his team did not exist and could even have returned to Brittany with a much heavier bill. At a press conference after the match, Éric Roy fully recognized the opposing superiority.
Mastery and Connection
“We came up against a team much stronger than ourshe said. “We have to recognize when the opponent is superior, this is reflected in the score even if we have regrets because we concede goals that are, in my opinion, avoidable. There was so much technical mastery, connections between the players… We feel that a good half have been playing together for years. We saw that it was a very high level with and without the ball. »
And to continue: « Of course I hoped my team would be able to show more things. What is most impressive is that when losing, they have the ability to reduce spaces, to be stifling for the opponent. You don't have the ability to organize yourself. He missed the little thing. A lot of things were missing. Congratulations to Barça. »
Nice player, Rico.
