Zapping Foot National Top 10 winners of the Coupe de France
After losing for the first time this season against Saint-Etienne last weekend, Girondins supporters were expecting a reaction from their proteges. In order not to be taken off the lead wagon, the residents of Matmut Atlantique won 2-1 against Dijon during the 9th day. The scapular club distinguished themselves from the start through Josh Maja, who converted a penalty in the 8th minute. Dijon reduced the score by Mickaël Le Bihan, served by Benjamin Jacob, in the 71st minute, before the Georgian Zuriko Davitashvili sealed the victory for his team at the very end of the match (87th).
The central defender and Bordeaux captain, Yoann Barbet, back in Bordeaux eight years after his departure across the Channel (to Brentford then to Queens Park Rangers), spoke about the state of mind of the group and the margin of progress for his team in the SudOuest newspaper.
Be more killer in front of goal, keep control of the ball in the opposing camp. That’s kind of what I said at half-time and at the end of the match. We hurt the teams, but when we arrive in their camp, we immediately want to make a difference instead of taking the time to build our actions. There is nothing physically more difficult than chasing the ball. If we manage to do that, we could do even more harm.
The Girondins will try to recover the leader’s chair during their next trip to Laval on October 1.
