Ugo Mola: "Dominating Europe, it does not happen overnight"

2020-09-20T17:11:10.433Z


The Toulouse general manager was satisfied after the great victory of his family, Sunday in the quarter-final of the Champions Cup, against the Irish Ulster (36-8) which allows Toulouse to join the last four for the 11th times in their history.


Did you expect such a gap against Ulster?


Ugo Mola:

We gave ourselves the means to achieve it and with a little more control we could have even done it much faster.

The only moments when we were in danger was for sure the balloons we released.

The results are very positive, of course.

Ulster is not used to taking so many points, it has been two, three years that it is a well-established team on the European scene.

Our rugby has been quite interesting many times and a bit rough other times.

It's still a great performance (Smile) ...

This is the second qualification in the semi-final in a row, that necessarily means something, right?


To be able to play the leading roles in Europe, it is necessary to register in the long term and regularity.

This is the case with this group and it is obviously very interesting.

This kind of high level match saves us time.

Facing Leinster, it is the continuity of our training.

Dominating Europe does not happen overnight.

It's a long journey, a cycle and a second semi-final is proof that we are growing.

We have a fairly young group and it's a real satisfaction.

"Offensively, we know that when we hold the ball, we are able to score points"

This is the third time in three matches that your team has scored more than 30 points.

Isn't that yet another encouraging sign for the future?


Especially since this time we managed to remain fairly solid defensively (after conceding 33 points in Clermont (30-33) and 23 at home against La Rochelle (39-23) during the first two days of Top 14, Editor's note).

Offensively, we know that when we hold the ball, we are able to score points.

We could even have scored a lot more with a little more accuracy.

We have this ability to create opportunities, but the most important thing is the ability to materialize them and here we still have progress to make.

Well, after that, we're not going to be choosy either.
