OM-TFC (2-2): Coach's reaction

Match analysis

It's frustrating because we had already dropped points against Angers. We played poorly in the first half. We need to get used to playing three matches a week. I can't explain the difference between the two halves. We deserved to win. We lost the top spot in the table on a corner kick in the 92nd minute. We need to pay attention to the details. We were in first place, we would have said and done things differently.

The points lost

I made changes because Emerson had been asking me to take him off for a long time. I brought on Egan-Riley, but if Emerson hadn't asked, I wouldn't have taken him off. The same goes for Nayef Aguerd. I see the players every day and I know if we're ready to play three matches a week. We're not used to playing three big matches a week yet because the same players played in the first half and the second half, apart from Robinio Vaz. We're not at that level yet, where we can play three matches a week.

The last goal

We're trying to work on everything. How do you hold on to a result at the end of the match? It's hard. We've been working on how to hold on to a result since the start of pre-season. We need to be more cunning, more ruthless.

The table

Yes, I've done the same calculations.

Another goal in added time

The manager said it after the match against PSG. When we're leading 1-0, we sit back. I find it hard to get angry with my players because they gave their all. In the first half, some players were walking. In the 92nd minute, we could have managed it better, but we conceded a throw-in 40 metres from our goal. We should have managed it better. We're paying dearly for it... Many teams do less than us and still win games.

Nayef Aguerd

Yes, he was out of steam. I didn't want to force things. The choices were made to bring in energy, the energy we lacked in the first half.

A good period overall

I would like to thank the supporters for applauding us because they saw that the players gave their all. Ligue 1 isn't over, there are still many months to go. Tonight's result is difficult to swallow, but we have to find a way to improve. My staff and the players have to think about what more we need to do. I hope there won't be any repercussions. That would be silly. We have to focus on the positives. We have to talk on the pitch, get the players moving, and face up to situations. Luck favours those who seek it.
