On the sidelines of the 16th round of the Coupe de France between GFC Ajaccio and Lille, Christophe Galtier spoke of the suspension he will serve in 10 days against Monaco. Needless to say, this is a shock at the top of Ligue 1, oh so decisive in the race for the title.
The Lille coach was carried away at the end of the match against Brest (0-0), questioning the additional time counted by the fourth referee.

An “incomprehensible” decision for Galtier
“It is incomprehensible. We made a videoconference and I did not try to escape my comments. But there is a difference in the interpretation. I did not treat the referee but I said that he had been dishonest concerning the additional time and the saving of time of Brest. There is a difference to say to the referee ‘you are dishonest’, even if my voice carried “, recognizes Galtier who admits an error of tone on his part.
A disproportionate sanction?
The Mastiff coach continues: “I find the sanction heavy and disproportionate. Especially when you know the importance of the coming match. I suppose that those who judged at the disciplinary committee knew the calendar and took pleasure in suspend me for this match, “argues Christophe Galtier. Without its main trainer on the sidelines, Lille will have to grow their trip to the Principality so as not to be caught up by PSG and OL.
