Lille: the joy of Bruno Génésio

Bruno Génésio seems to have found the formula with LOSC. The northern club won on the Bologna pitch (1-2) this Wednesday evening in the Champions League. A third victory in five matches played for the Lille team, which is in 12th place in the standings for this championship phase. After the match, Bruno Genesio gave his analysis of this convincing victory for his team and praised his young thumbs. “ We had control most of the time. In our organization, we played high, with a vertical game and a lot of races. We would have even deserved to win more by a wide margin with one or two additional goals. It is also the victory of youth with Ayyoub (Bouaddi), “Gala” (Mukau) or Matias (Fernandez-Pardo). I have a larger squad with the return from injury. I am lucky to have quality and efficient players. It's important to find all of this given the pace we've been going at since August. Experienced players bring tactical stability. With the freshness of youth, I like this mix and this balance. »

Asked about the rest of the competition, Génésio did not want to take any risks, despite the 10 points won after five days. “ Qualified, I don't know with this new formula. We don't have too much perspective yet, even if the statistical calculations are optimistic with ten points. We took an important step towards the round of 16. We are in a good position before receiving Sturm Graz. It's up to us to negotiate this match well to be in an even better position and why not consider even better », Replied the Lille coach at a press conference.
