Thierry Henry : "We saw a team who fought"
Pleased with the qualification to the semifinals after defeating Rennes, the coach highlighted the state of mind of his team. Not to mention that there is still a lot of work to be done.
“It was difficult for both teams. Rennes had the opportunity to win and so did we. Loïc’s match was extraordinary and not just during the penalty session.
It’s been a long time since we had so few opportunities in a game. For a long time we couldn’t find players in the spaces and the opportunity to play between the lines. There have been crosses. What particularly pleased me tonight is the attitude of the players who have always tried to improve.
We conceded a goal and we reacted. I liked it, and it’s very important. The fans saw a team who fought. It is always a satisfaction as a coach to see on the pitch what we have been working on in training.
We will not give up. There has been work done, and work that remains to be done. “
