The rhythm intensifies Ligue 2with a new week with three matches and an 11th day of Ligue 2 scheduled for the week. Like all second division teams, Dunkirk (3rd) will therefore be on deck this Tuesday (8:30 p.m.) against Lorient (2nd). A busy schedule which is succeeding rather well at the USLD so far since the northern team, victorious over Red Star (2-0) this weekend, is present on the podium thanks to a particularly convincing start to the year. The Dunkirk coach, Luis Castroappeared at a press conference to answer questions from journalists before a very high-end clash against the Merlus.

The sequence of matches
« We have three days of recovery, the physical dimension will not be a big problem even if we will be more tired, that's normal because we come out of a good match with intensity. But I think for this match it will be fine […] The players respond well to my demands regarding intensity, it's not easy to press like we do all over the field. But they are physically good, we have a good team. »
The goalkeeper's question
« Like I said after the match (editor’s note: against Red Star), the goalkeeper position is a position like any other. If one goalkeeper is better than the other at the moment, we also watch the training, we make the decision that we think is best for the match […] Adrian (Ortola) had three or four quality weeks, where we can see that he is good. We played a friendly against Le Havre, it was good too, and we made the decision with the information we have. It's not that Ewen (Jaouen) is not good or that he makes mistakes, we have two good goalkeepers at the moment and we make the same decision as for other positions […] Adrian Ortola has more experience, that's normal. It’s the little ones that set them apart. I think Adrian is a more offensive goalkeeper. It depends on the matches and what we need […] It's possible that we alternate goalkeepers, that one or the other plays ten matches, that we never change again… »
