How do you explain this rather unexpected route?
We saw a team of Ivry who were hungrier, who had more anger. It is sometimes difficult to reproduce the same level of play from week to week, but we really lost our game there. I am very disappointed with our performance.
Faced with this fairly flat defense, we would have had to do a few more shots from distance, which we weren’t able to do.

What went wrong for you?
We have lost too many duels, in attack but also in defense. We lost a lot of balls that allowed Ivry to score easy goals and widen the gap. I think we suffered eight or nine counter-attacks in the first half. However, even if we played poorly, we could have returned to the game. But when we had opportunities, we missed two or three 6-meter shots against Mate Sunjic.
Was there a relaxation in the heads after the victory against Aix?
I do not think so. We had a good week of training, we were really serious. There are games like that in a season …
The tomorrows that become disillusioned at C’Chartres MHB
Chartres limited to 27 goals, we were no longer used to it …
Normally we don’t have a problem with scoring, that’s true. But we ran into a good defense, with a very solid central block. Faced with this fairly flat defense, we would have had to do a few more shots from distance, which we weren’t able to do. We got into duels too much. We usually score a lot on the counterattack too, which makes our life easier, but this time it wasn’t like that.
Now, towards Créteil.
Yes, we will forget this game and focus on the next one. We all want to raise our heads and redeem ourselves.
