The Clermont Foot is still skating at home and could only do better than a draw against promoted Red Star (1-1) this Tuesday evening during the 6th day of Ligue 2. Now on the edge of the red zone, the Auvergne club will have to move up a gear. After the match, the coach Sebastien Bichard was frustrated at the press conference with this result.

“I’m very frustrated and angry. We have to win again. These are not empty words. There have been some very good things in the last 6 games. We have the opportunities, we have to settle the match and we don’t have the same press conference afterwards. We had the opportunities to win and we should have won. I’m not talking about bad luck. To move up a level, we have to value what we do. That would prevent it from happening to us (the equalizer) on a half-ball. By leading and feeling good in the match, the players may have unconsciously backed off a little. In the second half, I wanted to rotate quickly to bring in some new blood. Red Star played their moves to the full. What matters to me is that we produce, we have opportunities but we don’t finish. We play the same way at home or away, the boys are committed. The ball is in our court to promote what we do. Diedhiou? He just arrived, we can’t take certain risks, he is progressing in his preparation. He has tasted his first minutes and we will continue to move forward with him. Me personally? I am competitive so it shakes me. We don’t have the points we should have. We are one of the teams that produce the most things but we don’t have the points. We have advanced a little in accounting terms tonight, it is the only positive side but I remain frustrated.
