Will Still did not taste Lens’ defeat against Paris Saint-Germain, calling into question the qualification of the Parisians.
Paris Saint-Germain won this Sunday at Bollaert in the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France against RC Lens, after a penalty shootout (1-1, tab 4-3). After the match, Lensois coach Will Still did not hide his disappointment, believing that the elimination of his team was unfair.
The Belgian technician praised the copy delivered by the Northerners, which he judges superior to that of the Parisians, who knew how to capitalize on a defensive clumsiness. Indeed, while the RCL had opened the scoring thanks to a strike from Abdukodir Khusanov deflected by Mbala Nzola after the hour mark, Gonçalo Ramos, freshly entered into play, took advantage of a loss of ball from Kevin Danso to equalize just four minutes later.
A revenge to take for Lens
“I think it’s not the team that deserves it that qualified. We had a very good performance in general, the starters brought something extra, we created four or five situations but like what we have been doing since the start of the season, we missed them. Then we concede a goal on an error. It’s annoying because we did more than enough to qualify. I’m not interested in the penalty shootout.” replied the 32-year-old tactician to the media.
The Sang et Or will have a revenge to take against PSG from January 19, on the occasion of the 18th day of Ligue 1. Before this shock, the capital club will face FC Espaly (National 3) in the round of 16. final of the Coupe de France, January 15.
