In the mixed zone Julie Rabanne scorer at the finish for the victory of Fleury against Nancy on behalf of the 1 / 32e finals, gave us his reaction on this match of recovery. A meeting that also allowed Fleury to get back into the bath before the match against Bordeaux next weekend.


Julie Rabanne - Indeed, it was very complicated, there are risks that we played almost the entire match at 10 (after the expulsion of Léonie Multari). It's football, we managed to pick up the score very quickly especially in the second half being well requredées. It's a Cup match and we have to show that we have our place. We had to tap into our reserves and do what we managed to do.


Journalist - There was a penalty not whistled by the way ...

J.R. - It was still very questionable but it is the decisions of the referee, we can not discuss it. We got up in the second half and that allowed us to come back to 3-3.


CDF - Did you expect to receive such a strong team?
J.R. - Oh yes, I know Nancy for having met them in D2. I know very well Marlyse (Ngo Ndoumbouk) who is a very good player. We see very well on the ground, she does what she wants. Nancy has very good players, whether in the middle or in defense. It is a very very good team and must not be underestimated.


CDF - What made it difficult for you to start the game Is it the overexcitement of the Coupe de France?

J.R - I could not tell you too much. We did a good week of training but explain it, I could not.


"We had to bounce back and that's what we did."


CDF - It's the wind that has disturbed you a bit or synthetic can be?

J.R - No, not even because we train all week on synthetic terrain so there is no reason for it to be the terrain or the weather. I think we had trouble getting in there. They gave us a direct club shot [after their goal], we had to bounce back and that's what we did.


CDF - We've seen a lot of fans talking at the edge of the field, and does not that bother you?

J.R. - Personally, I do not hear anything. Already I do not hear my own teammates in the field. I try to ignore the fans because if you listen to what they say, it's not even worth it. You leave the match and it's over.


CDF - You're doing well and it was a good match.

J.R. - Yes, it was a good match, in the end, it's a Cup match. The qualification is there and we know we have a lot of things to work on this game because there have been some deficits. But here we are, we have been able to count on the work of everyone, especially Charlotte Fernandes who goes right side.

Marlyse was doing what she wanted and we had to take it to two but we better rectified the shot in the second half.


CDF - Are you going to use this match for the second half of the season?

J.R. - For us, it's a reference game because we were not playing against a DH or anything. It was a real team of D2, who is second in his group and it was a good confrontation for us.


CDF - How are you going to welcome the new recruit, Claire Lavogez? How are you going to play with her?

J.R. - I could not tell you, you have to see that with the coaches. (laughs) We do not know with which compo, how we will play with her. I have no idea.


CDF - We have seen that you are very strong in combinations, it's really your big advantage at Fleury ...

J.R. - Yes, they are created. We have very different profiles. We have deep players, stall. We do not give up anything and today, we had to show it.
