J-P. Rivère: "The disappointment is there but we need to pick ourselves back up"

Your feelings this evening?

There is frustration and disappointment. It's understandable when you lose in the final of the Coupe de France. We didn't put in a good performance tonight. We let it pass us by. The disappointment is there but we need to pick ourselves back up. I also want to thank all of the Niçois who travelled. Paris isn't near by. Thank you to them. We are disappointed for all of our supporters. Those that were here today and those that followed from afar.

Were the expectations too high?
We will reflect on that to follow. In the heat of the moment, it's always tough. We didn't put in the performance that we needed to. That's when experience comes into it. We will need to bounce back, lift our heads and finish the league well.

The season is not over…
No. What counts now is to pick our heads up, to get back to work tomorrow and to perform on Wednesday against St Etienne.
