Bruno Genésio, the LOSC coach, appeared very happy after his team’s prestigious success against Real Madrid (1-0).
LOSC struck very hard this Wednesday evening by claiming the scalp of Real Madrid during their second outing in the Champions League (1-0). An unexpected victory, but which is in no way the result of chance.
The victory of the Northerners is deserved. Bruno Genésio, their coach, was the architect. At the final whistle, he explained how he went about destroying the best team in Europe. “We used a lot of their match against Atlético. We wanted to put a lot of intensity into the game. By leaving the ball to their central players and pressing on certain phases. It worked perfectly and the scenario was ideal with the goal scored just before half-time.”
Genesio congratulates his troops
The Lille coach also paid tribute to his goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, for his multiple saves at the end of the game.
“The last 35 minutes were tough but Lucas made the necessary saves. We are rewarded for the efforts we have made,” he indicated.
Genésio becomes the first manager to score victories against Ancelotti, Mourinho and Guardiola. What is his secret? His response: “For me, the most important thing is what the team did. We put things in place and then there is buy-in from the players. Against this kind of opponent, you have to do everything well. A goalkeeper who makes the saves, an attacker who is efficient and a little successful. We had a very good period, we suffered more in 2e period but we were solid. It’s a great evening for everyone, for the club and the supporters.”
