“The return to the surface that we made during the last 10 minutes after taking hits to the head really pleased me. We could have resigned but on the contrary, we noticed an attempt. And on the last dismissal, there is a personal exploit. That’s talent, we are happy to have these players with us. This match could have escaped us, perhaps it should even have escaped us. But we have put the ingredients in place to show a beautiful face of the UBB. Destiny was with us at the end of the match, whereas it had not been in Toulouse or La Rochelle. »

“I remember the character of the team. We didn’t want to panic, we stayed connected the whole time, until this last occasion which went to the end because we knew how to provoke it. It feels good, we haven’t had much success since the start of the away season. Winning at Michelin is never easy.”

Mahamadou Diaby (UBB third line)

“Apart from the trip to Oyonnax, we had always struggled with experienced teams. It shows the mental side of the group. We are making progress on this, it is a founding match. We made small mistakes 4 minutes from the end, we took this penalty. But we say to ourselves that we are going to look for something on the dismissal and that is what is happening with Pete Samu. So a match really lasts 80 minutes.”
