Rémy Cabella scored his team’s second goal as they won against Rennes on Saturday (1-2).
Rémy Cabella (attacking midfielder for Lille, scorer on Saturday in Ligue 1 during the 3-1 win at Rennesat the microphone of Canal+ Foot): «Even if we conceded a goal at the start, I think we stayed in the game, we played very well. What we lacked was to finish the chances, we did it in the second half, with the whole team. Tonight is a very, very good victory, we went for it with our hearts. We have the level. We have a mentally strong team. We deserve, we must continue, we have important matches coming up, from Wednesday against Lyon (in the Coupe de France).»
Arthur Théate (defender of Rennes): «In the first period, we scored on an error on their part, we made it happen, we managed to do good things defensively but in the second period, they got back into the game with their goal. They continued to push and we should have gone up the block a little higher. They played a big game, they also have a lot of merit. It was ten wins in a row at home, here it is, first defeat after this long series… It’s football, it’s up to us to stay solid and show more compactness at the end of the second period.»
