A qualification and anger.
Present at a press conference this Tuesday evening after the qualification of Lille against Olympique de Marseille (1-1, 3-4 tab), Bruno Genesio did not mince his words, despite the positive result. The reason? The goal conceded in added time on a long shot from Luis Henrique. “We will have to remember this end of the match… I don't want to be a killjoy because even if the penalty shootout went in our favor, I can't imagine if it had been the other way around . We will have to learn quickly from these mistakes which cost us dearly at the end of the match. »
Also questioned about possible existing tensions with certain players, the technicians also responded frankly:“I'm not angry with some of my players. I just say what I have to say because I feel certain things. But despite the qualification, I will drive the point home, I will talk about it with some of them. There are still things to improve if we want to do great things. These are small details, but which, at a very high level, can be costly, like the goal conceded this evening […] There are one or two attitudes to correct. » Despite everything, Genesio was satisfied with the finality, facing“a team in good shape and who were at home. » So the essentials.
