“My problem is to know with which readers we receive Monaco next Sunday …”
Antoine Kombouaré that his troops deserved their qualification, against Vitré (2-0), in the Coupe de France. However, he fears having to rely on a friendly group against Monaco next weekend.
“It’s a deserved qualification, but it took a long time to take shape. We weren’t able to score faster and worsen the score. Vitré knew how to make the suspense last. At the slightest relaxation, we could have been punished. You had to respect this opponent and have a lot of humility. Fortunately, they weren’t very skillful, like us. We only framed four times out of twenty shots. We were all favorites, at home, it would have been a professional misconduct for us not to qualify ”, instructed the FCNA coach at a press conference. Like his colleagues in Ligue 1, he is worried about the situation: “My problem is to know with which players we host Monaco next Sunday … Today we were 18, with only 16 field players (CAN players, two cases of Covid, injuries …, Editor’s note). I would especially like to know who I can get back. “
Many Ligue 1 clubs are facing absences linked to Covid-19 contamination.
