Jérôme Arpinon (coach of Nîmes) after the victory of Nîmes on the lawn of Reims (1-0): “This victory puts our heads right and validates our work. In the last matches, we hadn’t really recognized Nîmes Olympique. We had lost our values a bit, we found them. The truce was good for us, we were able to recover injuries, bring some players up to standard physically and we were able to work well defensively. Today, we set up a game plan: we didn’t have a lot of chances but we were able to defend well and it worked. It was wanted to let the Rémois play the game. I have players who like to run and if we can win all the matches like that, no problem. Many do not believe in us, but we believe in ourselves. I have a united group, which works a lot, and I am very proud of my players. ”
