Antoine Kombouaré (Nantes) after the match against Juventus: “It’s great, but there is still a match”

“How do you feel this Thursday evening following this draw (1-1) once morest Juventus?
It’s a big congratulations to my players, who were heroic, solid. We knew we were going to suffer, but we pulled together. We just missed in the first half. We were better in the second half. We knew we had to score and we managed to do it. Afterwards to achieve a feat, a crazy thing, it will be necessary to make two great matches. And the hardest part will be Thursday because Juve are upset, they will come to us with great ambitions.

“I spoke with Adrien Rabiot, they know they have the means to hurt us. »

The opener comes quickly, did that worry you?
Yes when I see 1-0 in the 13th minute, I tell myself that it will be complicated for us. We were shy in the first half, we wanted to protect our goal and we weren’t able to support our attackers. It’s great what we showed today (THURSDAY) but it is played over two matches.

Nicolas Pallois also raised his level…
We had no choice, to bring something back from here, we needed a great team, great players and that’s what we saw, everyone worked to stand up to this team. We suffered, there are two bars in the second period, but we held on. It’s a superb first leg but the second leg will be complicated. I spoke with Adrien Rabiot, they know they have the means to hurt us. »
