A match for history. This Wednesday, Lille receives Borussia Dortmund (6:45 p.m.), for the knockout stages of the Champions League. After held up to the BVB at the Iduna Park signal (1-1), last week, the LOSC hopes to finish the work in front of its audience at the Pierre-Mauroy stadium and aim for a first qualification in the quarter-finals of the C1. But rather than thinking about history, Bruno Genesio prefers to focus on the field.
“One of the dangers that awaits us is thinking about it before you think of the match and the game”said the LOSC coach on Tuesday at a press conference.
“The qualification, the historical aspect for the club, will be the consequence of what we are going to do on the field. And in particular what we are going to do in our game. We must not reverse things, we must not have in mind that we can get into history and that it may be the most important match for the club ”he added.
The BVB, “a very efficient team”
Rather than being caught up in the stake, Bruno Genesio wants to focus on the performance of his players. “But the big danger and the thing not to do, it is precisely to think of all this before thinking about our game and what we have to do with this team which also showed us to go that it was a very efficient team. We tend to quickly forget that Borussia is the finalist of the Champions League and that they had eliminated PSG to achieve this ”he recalled. Verdict, this Wednesday.
