Lorient/PSG – Pantaloni on how they grabbed a point against Paris | OneFootball

This Wednesday at 7:00 PM, Ligue 1 offered a multiplex where one of the matches pitted FC Lorient against Paris Saint-Germain. Unfortunately for the Red and Blue, this 10th day of L1 ended in a draw (1-1, see the video summary), but more importantly, Désiré Doué, just back with the group, was taken off on a stretcher. Olivier Pantaloni, coach of FC Lorient, stopped by the Ligue Plus microphones at the end of the match to discuss this draw:

Pantaloni: "Tonight again, solidarity was present"

A draw that feels like a victory?

The task was great against this fabulous team and the game plan worked. We decided to wait for them and have a very low and very dense block inside, and then as I said, it required a lot of effort. The players did it.

Should this match be used to move forward?

Yes, absolutely, we are somewhat continuing the matches we have played recently. Tonight again, solidarity was present, and it's a point we need to rely on again this season.

What were your words at halftime?

In the first half, we told them we were very happy with what they were doing. They applied what we wanted to implement and it was effective, and they needed to continue. We were only halfway through the match and if we continued to be as united, with a lot of communication, we could achieve a positive result. At the end of the match, it was congratulations.
