The first impressions of Emmanuel Beauchet after the victory of his team against Saint-Étienne. A Juvisy coach satisfied and confident about his team's ability to progress further by the end of the season.

"The goal is seven games [the last seven games of the season], seven wins (...). [On the field] is to be concerned, ambitious and produce something of quality like today in the second half. I thought it was really good (...) »

[It was also] important not to take goals, important to start half-time to get into the game because we have these little mishaps of youth that must be corrected, show a little more maturity and it was good today.

We decided to play at the opponent to create danger, go forward and put in a rhythm of play immediately supported, high. That's what we did in the first half and that's what we did in the second half. "

On the Bilbault-Butel association in central defense, most often aligned together but in midfield
"We know that these two girls can play in central defense. They can play in the middle but they can play also in central defense and it's trying to have a defensive solidity but also to have quality of play, first raise. So with girls who can play in the middle, we can think [that] in the first pass, in the mastery [we will] have a little more quality and accuracy and variety of play. That's what brings us Annaïg and Charlotte and at the same time, you have to stay strong defensively.

It can be a good option on the matches that are coming. We had seen good things with Charlotte Bilbault in the oppositions against Paris Saint-Germain, where she had been really interesting in this register, duel, impact, coverage and then quality of recovery. She is better I think when she has the game in front of her.

A 3-0 win but at times the (paradoxical) feeling of a lack of efficiency
It's always the key. I think we had good intentions, we were very serious, even if we sometimes had in the first half of the ball losses that must be corrected, which are not normal because we forced a little bit things. But everyone wanted to invest collectively and we quickly made the part of the shifts, had interesting situations, had opportunities.

After that it is always the quest to be as effective as possible and to be able to quickly convert a domination, an advantage. The teams that know how to do that are the teams that are confident, in the top of the table, who kill the matches with very few opportunities. We have to work, we know we have to get busy, but already when we have opportunities in football, we do a lot of good things.

And after scoring goals, that's the hardest thing in football. So there it is to encourage these girls, it is to put them in confidence, to ask them to try things and to take initiatives. And they have been rewarded (...)

In the first half where we could say, we must lead 1-0 or 2-0 at half time, which is true, we could have. But the talk at half-time was to encourage them to continue, and if we stayed in these arrangements, at one time or another, we would score. And what we hope [for the rest] is to work, to progress in this field of finishing, it is clear
