“We forgot the virtues of high -level football, commitment, aggressiveness, conquest of the ball. This is not enough to win but it is essential to get there. We forgot it in particular in the second period when we saw things that I didn't like much, ” he said.
Before continuing: “After 2-0, we entered the individual game a lot, the duels and it's a team that likes it. Rather than in first intention, to one or two keys, fleeing the duels. We entered their game and they walked on us. For Olivier, like the other attackers, it was difficult to find the right solutions. »»
