At the microphone of TF1, the 29 -year -old goalkeeper told his secrets on the penalties, he who had already stopped a first leg.
“We knew it was going to be revengeful, they did what they wanted to go and it stung our pride. I knew I had to be ready. It is a psychological duel, the players gave a lot and the lucidity is less present. You have to take up space in order and dominate the duel, it succeeded and we qualified. It's in the head, in the eyes. I even played with the laser in the first leg, I like to play with what I can to counter the shooter, who has a very large cage. It succeeded in the two matches, it was an exercise where I had a lot of success. I hope it will last “he assured on TF1.
