Régis Le Bris (coach of Lorient, beaten 1-0 by Toulouse): “We had the ball instead, but with difficulty finding acceleration phases behind the midline. At first, we managed to touch Romain (Faivre) and Enzo (Le Fée), then Toulouse closed the inside of the game. Our spaces have evolved, they were more on the sides. But we lacked precision in the quality of our sequences to be impactful in the penalty area. This gives a game that does not turn into acceleration, imbalance and dangerousness. For several weeks, we have been able to defend our goal correctly, but that does not allow us to create chances. We have different players (since the winter transfer window) and we have to find with our forces present an equation to be dangerous on the opposing goal. »
Philippe Montanier (Toulouse coach): “We are happy to reach 41 points at this stage of the season. It is a theoretical maintenance, we remain cautious. But it was a first step to aiming higher. Today, we especially wanted to play a serious match, and I think it was controlled, built, with a deserved clean sheet. There is a lot of satisfaction. Now in Coupe de France mode? Yes still. We had to fight, but it wasn’t too difficult either because the Lorient match was very important to recover the points lost at home, reach the 41-point mark, and get closer to Lorient who were in front. »
