“I’m really pleased, because it’s not easy to play here. We know it’s tough to play at Le Phare; the atmosphere is incredible. I think we controlled the match just as we wanted to, but we also missed a few chances. The most important thing is that we stayed calm and stuck together. We showed what sort of team we are. Tonight, there were also some new faces in the squad, and that was great. I’m looking forward to getting back into the Champions League, of course. It’s something - I’ll say it again - extraordinary. We’re keen to see how we’ll perform this year, but we’re ready.”
“I don’t know that we could have got off to a better start this season. In terms of results, we’ve won our matches against Montpellier and Chambéry, and we’ve also won a title, so it’s a great way to start the season. Today wasn’t easy, playing in one of the toughest venues in the league. There were some tricky moments, but we kept believing right until the end. I think we showed our resilience, and we managed to pull away to control the closing stages of the match.”
