“It’s a victory which will do you good in the race for Europe but which was not easy…
When you play a quality team, which maintains itself, which is well organized, it’s normal. But I’m happy with our first period. Even if we didn’t score. We were in control, we did good counter-pressing, we created chances. The match was logically won even if it was not easy.
How do you explain your difficult twenty minutes after opening the score?
When the results of one team are less good, and the other has nothing more to lose, it puts itself a little more in a form of protection. Protection in football should not last. It’s a period that plays a lot in people’s minds. We secure a little, we let the opponent go back up, we make one or two errors which lead to opportunities for the opponent that we could have paid for. But we went for the second goal on a nice transition played with great accuracy.
What information do you have on Kevin Danso coming out during the break?
He hasn’t taken an exam yet. He stretched his adductor and asked to go out. When there are two weeks of competition left, it is possible that his season is over, unless it is weak. We’ll see the ultrasound in 48-72 hours.
Can this victory allow us to gain serenity and confidence?
There are two weeks left. I don’t think confidence will change in two weeks. But when I see my team start, they play with confidence. When you lead, you have to be very sure of yourself to be in control, which is not our case currently. You don’t know the latest results. But there is no doubt when we start. Nobody asks for backward passes but we wanted to secure ourselves. That’s why I’m happy that we went for this second goal. »
