Eugenie Le Sommer, author of the double victory of OL 3-0 against Guingamp reacted on the performance of the team, and the game system set up with two of Lyon's new recruits, Morgan and Buchanan. Interview.

 

 

Rather satisfied with this match?

I'm happy to score, but what we will remember is especially the collective performance. We see that there are still automatisms to find. There you have to continue to work.

The integration of new recruits, Alex Morgan and Kadeisha Buchanan it went well?
Yes, they are beautiful girls, after that what is a little harder is the language, it's harder to understand. After we try, they are good players so from then on, it's easier too.

Do not you think you're not going a little fast in your game?
If maybe we know a little rushed sometimes, because there were spaces, after we did not fit the last passes or the last gesture but when there's space, it's true that we are very quickly attracted by that. Yes maybe we have not scored enough goals in relation to that.
We know that Guingamp is a good team, that they are capable of doing good things. They beat Juvisy. There have been years when they put us in trouble but today they have not created opportunities. We could have scored a lot more goals, but we expected a strong team, we knew they would defend well and it's difficult to find spaces against those teams.

Alex Morgan, put you in good conditions, especially after the opening of the score on his assist?
Yes after it is true that we complete well, it is a player who takes a lot of space, who likes the depth, or I pick a little more. But yes it went well, it bodes well for the future. It is inevitably necessary to work on automatisms and to know who wants to do what at what moment. She knows how to play OL, she's a smart girl. This week we worked well with the new recruits and they had seen with the coach, the game project that we had so it's good.
