- FC Nantes, shamefully beaten (3-2) in Rennes on Friday, welcomes Paris this Tuesday evening.
- The Canaries will be deprived of many holders, especially in defense.
- This Monday evening, we learned that the goalkeeper Alban Lafont will also be absent due to a thigh injury.
Headache is tenacious at FCN. Four days after the loss of defeat on the wire in Rennes (3-2) in the last seconds, the Canaries welcome (21 h 05) the leader and future champion of France, PSG. "I'm in a hurry to be tomorrow," admits Nantes coach Christian Gourcuff, who appeared on Monday at a press conference still very bitter about certain arbitration decisions.
Alban Lafont, who will ultimately be absent due to muscle discomfort in one thigh (the club formalized this Monday evening), he too is delighted with the “chain of matches” because “we can quickly move on to something else ". However, Nantes residents have a hard time turning the page on the Breton derby. “We had a difficult night, admits the coach. We cash in and that's life football. This frustration of defeat, we must transcribe it in the rage to win for tomorrow [this Tuesday] and for the rest of the season. "Lafont:" It woke us all up, we were touched. On the last minutes, we screwed up when we still had the game in hand… ”
Get inspired to go for the FCN
We move on to something else and PSG now? The Canaries have no choice anyway, and it's probably better for them. Deprived of Pallois, Appiah, Limbombe, Coulibaly and therefore Lafont, injured, the Nantes (9th in L1) want to be inspired by the first leg in early December (2-0 defeat). “We spoiled something that night because we had the ability to come back. We had problems with them. "
As in early December, the Gourcuff coach should not opt for the "bus" option in front of the Nantes cage. The 4-4-2 Gourcuffien stainless will obviously be aligned. "We're not going to play 5 behind or 8 defenders either, anyway, we don't have any more ..." laughs the Breton technician. Self-mockery, the best response to bad luck that has plagued the Canaries for several weeks.
