“How do you analyze this success?
We had a very complicated start. During the first 25 minutes, we were between two. Fortunately, we stayed solid and scored in a good moment for us. We started to lift our heads. Afterwards, we had a smart second half. We were strong, we were never flamboyant in this game.
“We move forward with our qualities, our faults”
Was it difficult to prepare?
Our start to training again was not of high quality. Fortunately, we finished better over the weekend. It was not easy to prepare, because our training dynamic was longer this week. The opposite team played completely liberated. That, we suspected. We managed the weak moments quite well. And we had strong moments that we also managed quite well because we scored. And when we had difficult times again at the end, we remained lucid. We move forward with our qualities, our faults.
Did you do the hardest part for the podium?
Nothing is ever guaranteed in football. It’s up to us to continue by making high-level matches like against Monaco (3-0, April 22) or being strong like tonight (Tuesday). We struck a blow for the podium but we still have a lot of battles to fight.
From Saturday against Marseille, an appetizing match…
Appetite will be needed, that’s for sure. There will be some on the other side. It’s a good match to play, the second against the third with five games remaining, it’s not trivial. »
