With a smile on your face and your head held high. There is no need to go much longer to describe the Briochins at the end of training this summer 2023. In their faces, life is beautiful, the world is beautiful. And especially the descent in National 2, already forgotten. “The players came out of it all and focused on work, football and our preparation. We disregarded the situations that there may be with the management of the DNCG and this descent “says the new Briochin coach, Roland Vieira, also all smiles.

But two months later, this charge became collective. Roland Vieira tries to add his touch: “Anyway, you need the agreement of both when you make a choice.

Just to see what will be theirs for the two offensive players still considered.
