Laszlo Boloni (Metz coach, beaten 5-1 at Rennes): “I’m not too down, the result is so logical that it’s not worth looking for excuses. We played against a team that is fast, which in terms of physical contact, know-how is above us. The goal is to learn as quickly as possible. We saw a few reassuring situations, but very few… If that worries me? It sets goals on which we must progress. We played against a strong team in France, at a high level. To play properly in the first division, we still have things to do.
The last twenty minutes of the first period were rather not too bad. I also remember the good performance of (Alexandre) Oukidja, even if it was useless, I expected more from our midfield. We are also missing a few kilos in attack.
