It is the first faux of the RC Lens in this preparation. And it did not please at all to Peter Sage, which was in a cold anger after the defeat of the Sang et Or against AS Rome (0-2) on Saturday in Bollaert.
“We were very good until the goal (0-1, 14th). We have to open the brand twice but then we completely abandoned in the pressing. We hid to take out the ball. There were no pass lines and therefore few possibilities to play. It resulted in the fact that our goalkeeper was almost forced to clear. For me, it is an admission of weakness ”regretted the coach Artesian with the team.
“For me, it is quite just about courage. The courage to leave space behind his back to squeeze. The courage to ask for the ball, even if it means losing it ”chained the demanding stone.
Sage stone and the way
Before the meeting, the former OL coach insisted on the importance for the Lensois to show a combative and conquering face in front of the Bollaert audience. The content of this meeting disappointed him a lot.
“I don't care about the result. I consider that we have the right to lose, but not the right not to play. Today, for 30 minutes, a third of the match, we have not played at all. In this sense, one cannot claim to have an ambition and display such a pale face. »»
