Her emotion and her tears were one of the highlights of the victory of the Girondins de Bordeaux against Metz (2-0)
this Saturday afternoon at Matmut Atlantique during the 11th day of Ligue 2. fransergio
completely broke down after his goal in added time of the game. His first in an official match with the Marine et Blanc. After very complicated months since joining the club a year ago, the Brazilian midfielder has dropped everything. A rare and strong image on a lawn coming from a footballer. After the match and a long wait at the anti-doping control, Fransergio returned to this defining moment alongside the club’s sporting director, his compatriot, Admar Lopez.
Can you explain this emotion to us?
I’m the only one who knows what I’ve been through since my arrival, with a few relatives, and this goal is something I’ve been hoping for for a very long time! I am happy for the club which has always trusted me but also for my teammates. It is an indescribable emotion. I lived through very very difficult times but I always kept my confidence. I knew one day it would pay off. Today is the happiest moment for me since my arrival, it’s a lot of emotions!
Is this the first time you crack like that?
No, it’s not the first time. In Braga, I had a cruciate ligament rupture in my knee and when I came back, I scored in front of my parents for my first match, I had the same strong emotion. These two moments are similar.

Have the last few months been the worst period of your career?
Yes, it was the most difficult period of my career. In Braga, I had lived five incredible years where I was even the captain. Everything had gone very well there. Since I arrived at the club, it was very complicated for me. Fortunately, today that is changing. The dynamics of the group, the team and myself. I feel much better and ready to help the club. I’m very happy for that.
Did you owe the club or the fans revenge?
No, I do not think so. But, I had a discussion with Admar (Lopes) at the start of the season and I told him that I owed something to the management, to the club, to the supporters because they trusted me when they recruited me a year ago. year. I had to pay my dues. Today it turned out, I marked the club’s anniversary day, an important day for the supporters. I feel very good here, I love the club, I love the fans and I’m happy that my work is finally paying off.
Where did you find the energy to do that 70m run in the 92nd minute?
We have to have the energy from the first to the last minute. We had a complicated game, especially in the second half, but I tried to do my job. I want to thank Aliou (Badji) for giving me the ball to score. But, even if he hadn’t, I had to do this race because it’s my job. I am very happy with the gesture of Aliou (Badji).
We feel you better and better in this team…
Yes, I feel a lot more confident this season and it’s mainly thanks to the team’s state of mind. I was talking just before coming to see you with Vital (Nsimba) and I told him that last season when I lost a ball, there was no one to compensate for my mistake and cover me whereas today everyone try to help everyone. It is therefore much easier for a player to play under these conditions.
