Jocelyn Gourvennec (Lille coach,
after the 1-1 draw in Saint-Etienne
)
: “
There is regret and reproach for not having put the second goal which would have saved us.
We have found a conquering and balanced LOSC in defense.
We rather controlled the game by not leaving much to Saint-Etienne.
It's always difficult in Geoffroy-Guichard where the public is very present.
It energizes the matches.
We were strong.
We have found things more in line with what we can do, especially after the missed game last week against Nice.
To discover
Ligue 1 fixtures and results
Two points are missing. We wanted to take three. Instead of going 2-0 or 3-0, we exposed ourselves to a set piece. This is the story of the match. This result means that we still have some progress to make. We struggled to enter our championship after a great performance to win the Champions Trophy in Tel Aviv. We are still on the right track. It is not yet sufficient. It has to be in a week but the performance at Saint-Etienne is encouraging
