RC Lens obtained a stunning victory against Nantes this Saturday at Bollaert (3-2, 11th day of Ligue 1). Will Still gives his feelings after this victory which seemed unhoped for for a long time.
Lensois.com: Will Still, what is your analysis of this meeting and this victory acquired at the end of a scenario full of twists and turns? These are 3 points taken in a very complicated, very committed match, very messy at times. I will retain the strength of character, the personality to come back in a match where most people don’t believe in it. We made adjustments, we went to 4 behind, but we saw the collective strength which is very present in the group. We know that not everything was good. We played against a low block in 5-4-1 which we didn’t necessarily expect, but we held on until the end. The entrants have done well. The collective strength allowed us to take 3 points.
This isn’t the first time you’ve pulled points, are these good signs? We are still here, we continue to take points, to move forward. We had to adapt to the absentees (Nzola, Satriano, Saïd, Khusanov, Aguilar, Cabot). Hats off to the players. Going to 4 in a system that we have rarely experienced and getting back into the match… You also have to get that little bit of luck. We have already shown that there is a lot of personality in the group and as long as it is feasible, we will continue.
On the other hand, your defense, the best in Ligue 1 so far, was found wanting this evening… The two goals we scored came down to a period of concentration or small errors of technical accuracy. But they have been impeccable since the start of the season and it doesn’t bother me that we make mistakes, because the collective is capable of putting things back in the right order.
