Jocelyn Gourvennec, the coach of Nantes, didn’t appreciate losing 2-0 against PSG with two lucky goals.
A deflected long-range shot, a penalty. The Nantes defense couldn’t resist the Parisian pressure, but for Jocelyn Gourvennec, coach of the Canaries, the defeat is more than bitter. “We lacked a bit of accuracy and efficiency on the chances we played,” he said.
Furthermore, he judged that PSG was fortunate. “They hit the target twice, and even the first one was a deflected shot. Then there’s the penalty, on which I have nothing to say. It’s a bit harsh to lose like this after following the plan to the letter. We were rather clever at times to make them defend near their goal.”
Moussa Sissoko, who deflected Lucas Hernandez’s shot for the first goal, is also disappointed. “There’s this first goal with a great shot that comes in and hurts us. But we stayed focused in the match. Then there’s this penalty, and we knew that at 2-0 it would be difficult. We continued with the game plan, and we still created chances, and I think we should have scored a goal in this match. We have nothing to be ashamed of, and now we’ll rest well because we have a very important match next week.”
