I think we played a good game. The only negative point is that we were not able to be more decisive. But we are happy with the final score and I am happy to have been able to help the team today by scoring. It is important to be there for the team and that is what I managed to do along with Thilo, the vice-captain, today.

Good evening Denis, what are your feelings after this match?

I think we played a good game. The only negative point is that we were not able to be more decisive. But we are happy with the final score and I am happy to have been able to help the team today by scoring. It is important to be there for the team and that is what I managed to do along with Thilo, the vice-captain, today.

Does it change your daily life to have responsibilities in the locker room?

No, in terms of my personality, I remain more or less the same. But it is certain that with this armband, I must set an example and help my teammates as much as possible, who are mostly quite young. I hope to do it well and it is a pleasure for me to be the captain of AS Monaco.

Can you tell us about the action that led to the second goal?

I was in midfield, and I saw Vanderson who made a great run, so I tried to get the ball to him as best I can, it came through and he managed to score. It’s great, I think it was important for the team to score that second goal.

Can we talk about there being a Monegasque specialty in set pieces?

We’re not bad on these set pieces, we work them well. We have to continue like this and capitalize on these opportunities like we did today. We have great takers, whether it’s Lamine, Golo’, Caio or even Maghnes. Competition is pushing them on, which is really positive.

I am very happy to be back. At the beginning of the pre-season I had another calf injury and I was stopped for about four weeks, so I missed part of the preseason with the group. I feel almost 100% and it was important for me to be able to play the 90 minutes while feeling good and having the confidence of my teammates.

The reaction of Caio Henrique

Good evening Caio. How do you feel after this match?

I am very happy to be back. At the beginning of the pre-season I had another calf injury and I was stopped for about four weeks, so I missed part of the preseason with the group. I feel almost 100% and it was important for me to be able to play the 90 minutes while feeling good and having the confidence of my teammates.

The coach told me, listen, if you feel tired, tell me and we will make a substitution, otherwise if you are well and you feel good, you will play the whole match and that is what happened. I was a little tired at the end but that is normal.

Explain to us the reason for leaving the corners to Lamine Camara.

We practice a lot on set pieces in training and we noticed that he takes them very well. Sometimes it is good to change the taker because the opponents expect me to take them. Tonight, Lamine made an assist and was not far from having a second one in the second half. We have a lot of very good players in this area. It is sometimes difficult to make the difference in the game, so it is important to be able to score on a set piece.

Tell us about the team’s defensive progress since the start of the season…

We prepared well defensively and we’ve improved in terms of concentration. We know that we don’t have the right to lose the ball too easily, and that’s what we’ve been doing well since the start of the season. We hope to continue in this way.
