Brice Samba, architect of Lens’ victory against Sevilla this Tuesday evening in the Champions League, praised the solidarity and commitment of his team.
RC Lens finished the group stage of the Champions League in style, beating Sevilla FC 2-1 on Tuesday evening. This victory allows the Sang et Or to qualify for the Europa League play-offs, a great reward for a team which had to overcome a difficult start to the season.
“The most important thing is qualifying this evening,” declared goalkeeper Brice Samba on Canal + Foot. “Quite frankly, we played with the values that are instilled in us here, with solidarity. We know that we are not the best in the world, there is no doubt about that, but we always give 1000%. This evening, we were put in difficulty, perhaps a little caught up in the stakes, but we will remember the main thing, which is qualification. »
