Quentin Bernard: “This might be the last football match of my life”
“I don’t even know how we lost the ball, there’s a cross in front of the goal and there are two attackers. It’s weird that we are at a disadvantage like that. The first one deflects and the other one chips it over the groin and I try to control the ball. Indeed, it was hand-ball-thigh. There’s no debate. Usually, I’m the first to yell, but if he saw it, I’m dead. I think this is the turning point of the match. We shouldn’t erase everything, there will still be match balls. I said a few words in the locker room because we were still down. Everyone had planned for some celebrations, but we will keep the champagne on ice. Nothing will be spared us this season. For me, this might be the last football match of my life, that’s why I wanted to tell them that maybe it’s over for me, but for them, there are still many incredible years with a nice ending in a week or fifteen days or even on Saturday (depending on the results of Fleury against Le Puy and Rouen against QRM). It’s normal to be disappointed, but we must not be discouraged.”
