On a three-game winning streak in Ligue 1 before facing Saint-Etienne in the Coupe de France round of 16, Lille suffered a defeat (3-2). Despite the elimination, Lille’s captain Aurélien Chedjou doesn’t consider it a setback. Unluckily scoring an own goal in this match, the LOSC defender emphasizes that the Coupe de France is over for them this year and they need to focus on their upcoming Ligue 1 fixtures. Chedjou is optimistic about their prospects, with longer weeks offering more recovery and preparation time to improve individually and as a team.
