• The Bretons beat OM 2 goals to 1 on Saturday, the first victory in their history at the Stade Vélodrome.

  • It is also the sixth straight victory for Stade Brestois in Ligue 1.

  • Despite all these records, Michel Der Zakarian reiterated the need to "stay down to earth".

At the Velodrome stadium,

A Brest Stadium of all records.

A historic first victory on Saturday at the Stade Vélodrome against OM (1-2), synonymous with the sixth straight victory in Ligue 1, a new club record.

“Yes, we win a lot of records.

Fourth, fifth, sixth victory.

And we win in Marseille.

It's good, the Brest residents will be happy, ”concluded Michel Der Zakarian at a press conference.

The key word was elsewhere, with a need to "keep your feet on the ground" after having obtained 18 possible points out of 18, and victories against Monaco, Lens, and now Marseille, among others.

“We hope that it will continue especially.

You have to keep your feet on the ground, and continue to work well.

While keeping this freshness that we have ”, he especially wanted to recall.

"We play the maintenance as at the start"

Their success took a long time to take shape after the superb opening of the score from Gerson for OM (30th), but after a first half during which they mostly chased the ball, the Brestois returned from the locker room with d other intentions. And in particular that of playing behind the back of the Marseillais, while leaving them possession of the ball. “They mostly spun the ball first, without being dangerous. I asked my players to be more active, closer to each other. And we increased in intensity in 2nd, with aggressiveness, and we created a lot of chances as well. This is a scenario we expected. Defend well, and counter. We were very good on the counter-attack, we used the space well, and we were sharp and technically fair, ”analyzed Michel Der Zakarian.

The Brestois benefited from a logical penalty for a foul hand from Boubacar Kamara in the area, transformed by Faivre (52nd), who clearly revived them. Before surprising the Marseillais thanks to a magnificent collective action, concluded by a goal of Honorat, just as magnificent (70th). Two goals synonymous with victory for the Brestois sixth in Ligue 1, with 24 points. "I believe that last year the Stade Brestois had 25 points at the break, and that did not prevent them from playing the maintenance until the end", recalled Michel Der Zakarian.

Because yes, Brest is still playing the maintenance.

"Anything can happen to us if we believe we have arrived, we do not have the same budget as Marseille, so we play the maintenance as at the start", insisted the coach of Brest.

Who will find his former club, Montpellier, next week.

For a seventh consecutive victory?
