Patrick Vieira (Strasbourg coach, after the 2-1 victory against Lyon): “Relief, satisfaction. We had to be strong tonight, because we came across a very good team from Lyon. We played with values, we were able to turn our backs. We managed to score both goals. Taking these three points is a satisfaction. We wanted to play a little more, but the quality of the Lyon team prevented us from doing so.
We are starting a cycle with players who do not have much experience in Ligue 1. On the defensive phase, we could defend better, but Lyon, with the technical quality they had in midfield, gave us a lot of problems. In this second period, I think we defended much better together, and scored these goals at important times.
