Rabiot: “I read a lot in the press …”
“I read a lot in the press … We made a very good week, assured the former Parisian. The coach was pissed off and sought to re -mobilize us little, it is normal, it is his role. But no one left the ship, on the contrary, we trained with even more enthusiasm. We gave the right answer but that is not enough in a match. You have to continue like this until the end. »»
“The key to our victory? The state of mind, Retroked Rabiot. Knowing that we had no other choice this evening (Sunday) than to win, and display this state of mind. We had not made a bad first half but we conceded a goal on a lack of aggressiveness at the start of the action. In the second half, we put more ingredients, we were better in duels and in the management of the ball. We must underline our state of mind, because in this area, what we had shown during the last meetings, it was not enough. »»
