Everyone has their own concerns. The new Castelroussin coach, Cris, there for two days of National, arrived at a press conference last night at Armand-Chouffet, with a certain satisfaction even though his team had not been able to maintain a favorable score (1-2 at the hour of play) and finished at ten with the exclusion of defender Brandon Agounon – a former member of the Caladois nest – who could have fueled the optimization machine in the mission to move up the rankings. While Laurent Combarel, the coach of the Caladois still very diminished by the absence of many executives from his team, underlined the numerous shortcomings of his team, in its weak times, too handicapping to achieve a second success at home this season, in the championship. Two speeches which say how the race to maintain is never a cakewalk. For no one.
Laurent Combarel: “We will have to remember our end of the match”
Laurent Combarel (FCVB coach): “This draw is frustrating and bitter. We came back from a complicated situation in which we got into it a little on our own. There was anticipation for this match, at home, against the last place, Châteauroux. I don't like to hide behind certain things, certain excuses, but we had eight players absent. I love those who took over and who did a good job on their highlights but unfortunately, they suffered too much. of situations after opening the score. damaging and recurring. We will have to work on this point, it will come with a little more confidence. The group of the moment, even if the starting eleven is very coherent, must learn to manage matches at home, on a field. very difficult. It's not easy for them at the moment, it's complicated in terms of bench depth and squad. It's obvious in a match like this. plunged us into doubt, just before the half-time Our start, in the second half, was more interesting. Afterwards, we will have to remember our end of the match where we pushed a lot to win. “
Cris: “We still lack the confidence to keep a score”
Cris (Châteauroux coach): “Coming here is always a challenge. Villefranche is a well-organized, disciplined team. We had that in mind before the match. In our position in the standings, things won't happen straight away. We won't lose. I I saw good things in the combined play and the search for depth I am happy even if we can have a little disappointment when we lead 2-1 before being caught at 2-2. .Players have it all given to hold on to this result, even with ten players. We still lack confidence but it will come. I have a group of hard-working players. It's a positive thing. We came very close to victory. on details, as we often do, we have to know how to manage our emotions better, without taking red cards in every match. It remains a negative point, on this subject, but there is not much difference between us. all the teams at the bottom of the table.”
