But for the first three it would already be an important price option compared to Kyiv.

For Nantes, after its rout against Qarabag and Monaco, it is necessary to raise the head against Friborg by offering a reference match in the words of Antoine Kombouaré. “It was important to talk about what went wrong, to highlight our weaknesses. The work we did this morning (Wednesday) was very much focused on defensive animation, on how to defend better because we expect a team from Friborg who will attack in force. How to recover the ball well, bring it out better… There were also a lot of discussions with the players, in small groups. We owe ourselves revenge on ourselves.” (match to follow at 9 p.m. on RMC Sport 1)

But winning this match can already change a lot of things in the standings.” explained Philippe Clément. (match to follow at 6:45 p.m. on RMC Sport 1)
