By winning a prestigious success in Lens (1-0) Didier Digard continues his good series on the bench of OGC Nice and is pleased with the progress made by his team: “I felt the team capable of winning in Lens. We knew it wouldn’t be easy. It’s a stadium with a remarkable atmosphere, which pushes a team to the end. A team that is on an impressive dynamic. The plan was to change the system, keeping the same articulations of the 4-3-3. The system is not important. It is important to articulate it, and give as many benchmarks as possible to my players. A lot of teams tried a lot of things, and they all lost. We tried, and it worked. The adversary lent itself to this. Lens does a lot of things. There is no real key to winning. We didn’t want to back down. That was the key for us! We are going to lose matches, but I would like us to go home having tried things.»
