The Bretons coach returned to the defeat of his team this Saturday against Lille (1-3) on the occasion of the 22nd day of the championship.
Bruno Genesio (Rennes coach, beaten 3-1 by Lille): «It’s a team that had shown a lot of good things since the start of the season. Tonight they added the efficiency that they hadn’t necessarily had in certain matches. I have nothing to reproach my players, we did our best with the means at the time but we came across a better team than us. We had a good start, we had chances to lead 2-0 because the goalkeeper made some amazing saves but even leading 2-0, I’m not sure we would have won, given the hold they had in the second half. They were superior to us technically, tactically, athletically, so it’s normal that they won the match. It’s a setback because we had an opportunity to put them far enough. There they are the ones who replace themselves just behind us. But the championship is not over, there are still a lot of things going to happen, we have to plan for the next match. I think we couldn’t do better tonight. We had a lot of absentees, players who have just arrived and who still have to integrate, others who are coming back from injuries… Against a very good team like Lille, we should have been 100%».
