The VGA Saint-Maur, author of two reassuring performances against PSG (0-7) and Soyaux (1-1), wants to confirm this revival of form in the game on the lawn of Saint-Etienne in a capital duel for the maintenance . Régis Mohar, Mélodie Carré and Alexia Nowak gave us their impressions before this meeting.
Régis Mohar (VGA Coach): "I'm sure we'll be fine."
Your impression after this 1-1 draw against Soyaux with a complicated start to the match?
"It was a tough challenge against Soyaux, which reflects our early start to the season, when we see that we manage to stand up for half an hour against PSG or OL and that we take goals after five minutes against mid-table teams is that there is a problem, as I said to girls, to stay in D1 there are no secrets. They showed it in the second half, and at the tactical level, it's true that I went in 3-5-2, we saw that there was a place to score and we I'm sure we're going to make it better, now we're not going to play games, we're going to be like everyone else. Etienne, we have no choice. "
CDF: Against Soyaux, we have seen a motivated team that has never been distracted. They were in and dominated during both periods ...
"Yes indeed, they work really well in practice, even if we're still 11th in the standings, and today there are no more small games for us. We did not get worried, we took an entry goal but behind, they reacted well, they mostly respected the instructions I gave them, and after that they had a very good reaction in the second half. that the season will be very hard, we are learning but I believe it to the end. "
CDF: Next game against Saint-Etienne, team also fighting for the maintenance. Compulsory four point goal?
"Objective the four points yes Against Soyaux too, we wanted to take the four points to try to revive a little, to be in the head.We will just go there to win.We have no choice We're back to the wall, where we turn around and go back directly to D2, where we climb the wall and we go to stay in D1, but I think there's room, I do not I'm not worried, when I see how they work seriously at training, they are still at least twenty, unlike what could happen to some clubs in D1 last year.It's going to pay.Once Soyaux, they have made a very good performance, it's just that there is not too big a gap between us and the 6th place, we now know what is waiting for us in the return matches on some matches, it's going to be tough, we'll work for. We are learning and we are moving forward, but I remain confident at 200% We must not forget that we are a promoted he alone had only one recruit. And yet, if you look at all the papers and all the interviews we do at the end of games, I have nothing to envy to other teams. "
Melodie Carré (Guardian of the VGA): "We will go to Saint-Etienne with the same aggressiveness"
CDF: Your impression after this 1-1 draw against Soyaux?
"It's a complicated game, we still have one goal in the first five minutes, we have to change that because we take too many goals in the first minutes of each game, in the first half it was complicated. came back more motivated, we are rewarded with this goal even though I think we could have scored one or two more, but overall we come back from a distance and the draw is rather deserved for both teams. "
CDF: Unlike the matches against Albi or Rodez, we felt a lot more envy on the whole meeting. You never let go. It will continue like that to hang more teams later ...
"Yes indeed, we also know that we no longer have a choice in terms of ranking and compared to the other teams that we will meet in the coming weeks, which is why I think. we have no choice, we have to take the points as soon as possible, it started today, we start with a draw, it's better than a defeat, now I hope that the motivation showed in the second half, it will help us against Saint-Etienne.
