After the draw between LOSC and FC Fleury (2-2), Lille coach Jérémie Descamps answered questions from journalists.
The Voice of the North - Coach, is this match satisfactory? You come back twice in this match, is not there a little frustration in the perspective of maintaining your team in D1?
I'm not going to talk about the maintenance lens. From the point of view of the "dry" result, it is a frustration to have as many goal chances and not to come back with the match won. It's still pretty staggering. After that it makes sense. When we give goals to the opponent, we can not win the match either. There are little things that did not work. In terms of efficiency it's true that it was poor, whether offensively or defensively. By cons on the content, the number of opportunities we had, it's still very satisfying. But it is no longer satisfactory now, we must move forward.
Voice of the North - What did you catch? Realism in both surfaces?
Ah yes ! I think it's obvious! We fished in the sense that we gave two assists to the opponent and when we have chances of goal, one-on-one with the goalkeeper where we are not able to put them at the bottom. The reality is there, simply. Good after content I have nothing to say to girls. We are far superior on this match there to the opposing team I think.
The Voice of the North - A Note on Ouleymata Sarr. A goal and a decisive pass, is it a good match on his part?
It's an average match because she could have put a lot more.
The Voice of the North - We saw that she made herself quite available ...
(Laughs) Yes, but football is not about making yourself available, it's about being effective! She is therefore one of the players who have not been very effective today. It is she or the others, because the others have not scored either. And even at the defensive level we could have been more efficient.
Football hearts: We have seen some improvement since September. Do you start a little bit to find the "rhythm of the D1"?
Yes, that's what I said, learning the D1 is over. We became a real D1 team. We proved it match after match. After we miss this little bit of success. Me since September, I think we did not even have "a" bit of success ... If, maybe the first leg in Fleury where we win 2-1 to the snatch ... It's the only game we had a little bit of success. So we say that success has to go and get it. We try, for now we can not find it. But I think we still deserve it from time to time in our favor because the girls, they give, and then what they show on the ground is really very positive. So I think they deserve this "little success".
Football Hearts - Earlier you talked about offensive and defensive efficiency. What do you think is wrong from this point of view? Is the stimulus that does not work?
No, it's just a pattern of play that I banned and in this game we do it twice ... So this is the question I ask myself: what's the use of everything I say in training? , in match. What we did today is something that I forbid completely. And we do it twice. Once I thought we would do it again and we do it again.
Hearts of football - We could still appreciate the contribution of Kenza Dali in this match. It really brings character to your team. Does she pass on her experience to Lilloises?
Yes, after she came for that. We needed experience. What she brings is her coolness in the hot situations, the conservation of the balloon etc ... Afterwards it is also necessary that she puts herself in the game plan. What is not obvious, one has a particular game plan, especially on the second half. We had taken over the bases we had worked on lately. So she has to do it slowly. Not easy because it comes out of a team like Lyon where it plays all the time, but to play this way you need the quality of players around. She will adapt, gradually, because it is a very intelligent player. And we, we must continue to work on ... (hesitation) our values to us and our qualities to us. But it is true that Kenza Dali brings us a lot in terms of experience. And confidence too, which is very important in a group.
Soccer hearts - In terms of building the game too maybe?
Yes, but I'm not focused on that. We are more effective in playing a more direct game, what we did in the second half, than playing a game built more, what we did rather in the first half. For me the game is good but it's not what I will ask in priority to Kenza. What I want is her experience at times when we are under pressure etc ... She will bring it to us. After the game, we'll see. Because I told you, to play you have to be able to do it. Currently we are not able to do it.
Football hearts - In the standings, you are currently in front of Fleury. The final fight for the maintenance looks exciting?
Yes we are in front of Fleury but we do not take a lot of points. What is disturbing is that we have matches to take points, we deserve to take them but in the end we do not take them. By force it may never happen. We have to take the points when we dominate the matches. Today if I am told that we can not take points, I do not understand. We had to take them and we still missed. That's what's a shame.
Journalist - A last word on the next deadlines. You move to Marseille on March 11 and receive Lyon on the 18th. I imagine that the goal against Marseille (last in the standings and who lost this Sunday 1-2 in Soyaux, ed) will win?
Yes, if there is a draw, we will take a point. If there is victory we will take the three points. The goal will be not to be outdistanced, that the Marseillaises do not return to us. At least when we do draws, the others do not advance either against Marseille it will be at the top before receiving Lyon.
