“Penalties are always a lottery”, plague Clement

The Monegasque coach spoke after the elimination of his team in Nantes on Wednesday.

Philippe Clement (coach of Monaco, beaten by Nantes in the semi-final of the Coupe de France ) : «I’m disappointed, because my players have done a lot of good things. We created a lot of chances, but success is not on our side. It was a good match for both sides. We managed to score here, which is difficult. It could have turned out differently. It’s our second game in a row with an own goal, it’s a bit of bad luck. In the end, the penalty shootout is always a lottery. And the Nantes players were carried by the supporters, during the match as well as during the shots.

For the end of the season, there are still a lot of matches. We are still engaged in two competitions (Ligue 1 and Europa League), we really have the ambition to turn the tables, because we have missed it in recent weeks. But we have to push for that to change. Sunday (against Marseille), I want to see the players start with as much enthusiasm as today».
