Ligue 1: "We should be proud of the performance we showed today, but we shouldn't be happy with the result," fumed Jorge Maciel after OL's draw in Brest.

"Proud of the face" his players showed with ten against eleven for more than 80 minutes on Sunday against Brest for the 11th day of Ligue 1 , OL's assistant coach, Jorge Maciel, felt that Lyon should not be "happy with the result" of a draw (0-0) .

“We should be proud of the performance we showed today, but we shouldn’t be happy with the result. Because we are Olympique Lyonnais, we work for the three points,” the manager summarized after the match. Down to ten men from the 8th minute following Hans Hateboer’s dismissal, Lyon held their own against the Bretons without much trouble, displaying great composure and defensive solidity.

“If you look at the history of recent matches here, it’s always tough. Last season, even with 11 men against 11, we still managed to lose a game. Today, it’s true we didn’t create anything spectacular, but ultimately we didn’t concede much,” emphasized Paulo Fonseca’s assistant, who remains suspended and forced to watch matches from the stands. “I think the most important thing,” he continued, “is that we didn’t lose control of the game, like we did against Paris FC” on Wednesday’s Matchday 10, where Lyon conceded a 3-3 draw after leading 3-0.

The point earned in Finistère also owes much to goalkeeper Dominik Greif, who notably made a crucial save late in the game against Rémy Labeau-Lascary (82nd minute). "If he can give us that extra dimension, if he can add points to our tally, that's what makes the difference at the end of the season. So we're very happy with him. But above all, I think that today he was helped by a team that was solid and cohesive defensively," said Maciel.
