Laurent Blanc and his team fell short of reaching the record of 37 games without defeat as the French champions suffered a loss against Evian TG at the Parc des Sports in Annecy (0-2) during the 16th day of Ligue 1. The French coach expressed disappointment with the lack of finesse from his players and acknowledged Evian TG for playing a good match.
Despite this setback, Blanc aims to put this bad day behind and approach the upcoming match against Sochaux at the Parc des Princes with serenity. He emphasized the importance of squad rotation due to the tight schedule of playing every three days and stated, “We will recover well and prepare for the Sochaux match to regain victory.”
In the standings, Lille is just one point behind PSG (37 points) after their victory against OM (1-0), securing the second position. Monaco holds the third spot with 35 points, distancing themselves from struggling OM.
