QRM (Ligue 2) is still the only Norman club competing in the Coupe de France. And it came close for the Quevillais to come out of the competition this Saturday night in Diochon against Laval (National). Led since the 16th minutes of play (goal from Maggiotti), it was not until the 72nd before Nazon equalized. And send his own to the penalty shootout.
A performance not to be reproduced against Caen this Tuesday
Even if Bruno Irlès does not carry this competition in his heart, the QRM coach appeared annoyed at a press conference. “I am very, very disappointed with our performance this Saturday evening. I told my players. There was a Ligue 2 team and a National team. In the first period, the Ligue 2 team was not us“, reacts the coach.
It must be said that in 45 minutes, the Quevillais have only struck once on goal. “They squeezed us high, they found the lags, we just weren’t getting there“, analyzes Romain Lejeune, Quevillais doorman in the Coupe de France.”The changes at half-time have been good for us. And we showed another face“, he adds.
Bruno Irlès warns his players. “If we play like that against Caen on Tuesday, we’re going to hit the wall“, warns the coach of the reds and yellows before the first Norman derby for his team against Caen in Ligue 2. The next opponent of QRM will be known this Sunday evening at 8:20 pm.
