“It just came to our notice then. After all, the players didn’t play for three weeks. Our team was very affected by the COVID-19 situation and we saw it in the second half, we just lacked strength.
The boys had a hard time responding to an unstoppable opponent. We must remember the first part, that we played very well and as a team. I want to congratulate the team. The players fought until the end, now the most important thing is to get back into the rhythm and regain strength, play some games, which we could not do normally from the beginning of the season.
It is very difficult to feel the rhythm, especially when you are playing against an opponent who is playing all the time without interruptions. ” ouest-france.fr quoted T. Parker.
