On Sunday, Le Gym will travel to Guingamp for matchday 29 of L1 (kick-off at 3pm). Before the trip, Walter Benitez spoke calmly about the challenge ahead.

The morale of the squad

“Even in the more difficult moments, we have never stopped working. We reacted well against Lille, but it’s not finished now, we need to continue. We are all determined and concentrated on what we have to do. We will give everything to finish the season well, and that starts on Sunday.”

Guingamp - Nice

“The match is very important. We need to do everything to win and start a run, because we are getting to the business end of the season. The game won’t be easy. It’s down to us not to let go and to continue to grow together. Guingamp are a good side, with quality players. We have studied them and we will continue to do so until the match, to find the best way to approach it. Even if we need to concentrate on us above all else…”

The final sprint of the season

“There are still 10 matches, but if we think too far ahead and we underestimate the importance of the trip on Sunday, we will be dead. We are concentrated on Guingamp, because it’s the only way to focus on the future. I think about the squad, about the morale. We are going to do all we can to finish as high as possible and to reach our objectives.”
