Like every week on the Coeurs de Foot website, D2 Women's coaches speak on the last day. Here are the reactions after the 5th day.
Group A:
Michel Catalano (coach Rouvroy): "Of course disappointed but not unhappy, we have doubted for more than an hour. We take the first goal 15 minutes from the end of the match. The girls do not have to blush their defeat they fought well and this is perhaps their best match. We always fish in the offensive phases, we miss a very good attacker and we can compete. Arras was of course superior to us. "
Eric Akoun (St Denis coach): "A win that is good and that boosts morale and restores confidence with a state of mind. We must continue to work and remain humble. This cumulative result with other results allows us to get closer to the top of the table. "
David Gabsi (Lillers coach): "A very big satisfaction after this victory that my team was able to fetch by the game. It is still a victory and we know that the road is still long. "
David Fanzel (Metz coach): "After a difficult start to the match, we got the better of Vendenheim, who was in good shape. After the first goal, we let go and the third goal in the 45th was very painful. The path is still long and full of pitfalls. "
Lionel Mack (Vendenheim coach): "A difficult defeat for morale because the score of 3-0 at halftime is very heavy and severe because we are making a very good first period. The messines are very realistic and impose an aggressive game that prevented us from developing the game We had the merit of not giving up and continue to be present in the second period where I would have liked to be rewarded the girls' efforts. It is a match where we will have learned many things that will be useful for the future. "
Nicolas Carric (Val d'Orge coach): «A draw that is difficult to swallow given the game's physiognomy. A lack of maturity that costs us the victory is a pity. Despite everything, a very nice first half where we could have tried to kill the game. We have to rely on it to start again next Sunday. "
Jérémie Descamps (LOSC coach): "A catastrophic first half. A huge reaction in the second half. The girls met the expectations in the investment. I am very happy with this feedback and this result. They can be proud at the exit. "
Group B:
Pascal Lamagnère (coach of Arlac-Mérignac): "Paradoxically the content was not as good as last week but we were solid even in our approximations. Four very important points before going to Angers. "
Alain Le Dour (Lorient coach): "We have a very good first half. We played a good team from Bordeaux that we bothered. They return to the score thanks to a free-kick. The best team won. The Bordeaux experience made the difference and deserves its victory. A Breton derby coming, Saint-Malo. An interesting game to play against a team that we know well. We will look for the best possible result, namely the four points. "
Grégory Mleko (Yzeure coach): "After a half-time shy, the players went to collect their collective victory in 20 minutes. "
Fabrice Garin (St Malo coach): "The first half was balanced and slightly to our advantage. Then we made a bad start to the second half where we concede three goals in ten minutes. This lack of consistency costs us the match. "
Group C:
Kevin Collas (La Véore): "Big disappointment this draw. After 20 minutes of domination and 5 chances, we cash a goal in the 28th against the course of the game. This completely destabilized us. We thumped without ever finding the solution in this same period. We return to the score at the 48th from the start after a reshuffle at the break. Then we will have the opportunity to get ahead of our opponent, but the efficiency that has been fleeing us since the beginning of the season remains the same. We are in our place today. It is imperative that the individualities of the collective increase, and very quickly, their level of play. "
Samuel Riscagli (Dijon coach): "A first period under control. A drop in power at the hour of play due to our lack of rhythm profitable to the Marseillaises. They come back twice in 20 minutes. The girls finish strong in the last quarter of an hour when we resume the game on our behalf and we score our 5th and 6th goals! I dedicate this victory to Eric Giardina and wish him good luck in the event he is currently going through! "
Laurent Robert (Marseille coach FA): "A very difficult match for us against an athletic and physical team. Very bad first half of the team due in particular to a big pressing of our opponent. A nice reaction from the team after the break. We managed to put our game in place and jostled our opponent. The result is heavy on the scoreboard but I am proud of the reaction of my players who never gave up and fought until the final whistle. "
Sébastien Miller (Nivolet coach): "We started to work on certain tactical aspects, especially defensively. After a good start to the match and a logical opening of the score because we were in place and we recovered the balls high enough, we conceded the equalizer after a defensive error. After that goal, we had a 10-minute absence that killed us. We concede 2 goals in this period with concentration errors. It's a shame because in the 2nd half we have recovered well by having more possession of the ball. But we were too clumsy in the use of the ball to allow us to return to the score. So overall disappointed because we have more the impression of having given the match to Puy that the feeling of being outclassed. "
Maxime Clain (Nivolas coach): "Regrets because we are not doing a good match and despite that we come with a goal advantage at the break. We did not put the necessary intensity to keep the score or put the second despite one or two opportunities even if the draw is logical given our overall performance is two points lost for us. "
Fly Lahouari (coach Flacé-Macon): "We came across a Sandrine Bretigny of the big days. She scores 6 goals and we cut our legs in twenty minutes. For the rest not much to say Marseille was stronger. "
Pierre-Yves Thomas (Le Puy coach): "A logical victory on the first half. On the second half we did not play. "
Sylvain Delgado (Toulouse coach): "One more victory. We were hoping to continue our momentum to erase our bad start to the championship. Difficult match during the first half hour when Monteux posed us a lot of problems then we open the score on set kick. Back from the break we had more technical mastery and we physically made a lot of effort to put ourselves away. Only negative point, still waste before the goal. But the group continues to progress. "
