After the Racing’s defeat in Monaco (3-2), Liam Rosenior, the Strasbourg coach, expressed his disappointment and incomprehension with the result. He pointed out that the score did not reflect the intensity of the game and the performance of his team, which had dominated Monaco despite a revamped group and novice gamers. Rosenior acknowledged that the team may have played too much recently and made bad decisions, but insisted on the courage and determination of its players, who managed to return to the score against a leading Monegasque team. He also expressed frustration at certain arbitral decisions, which he considered to be unfair and which were deeply psychological in character.

Rosenior admitted that his team had started the game badly, but refused to question the scenario after the blow, believing that this is how the players progress and develop. He stressed the positive reaction of his men in the second half, who showed a lot of good things and showed character by returning to the score against a Monaco team. Despite the current frustration, he prefers to focus on the positive aspects and lessons learned from this defeat, with the goal of continuing to perform and win games.

This defeat in Monaco, marked by contested arbitral decisions and defensive failures, represents a disillusionment for the Racing Club in Strasbourg, which ends a series of five meetings on a negative note. Dilane Bakwa’s entry to the break raised concerns about his eventual departure, given his critical importance to the team. The coach is now looking to the future, hoping to turn this disappointment into motivation for the next games, including the reception of Le Havre in fifteen days.
