Luka Karabatic: "We have to stick together and stay united"

Comptes-rendus

Raul Gonzalez, Luka Karabatic and Yoann Gibelin give their reactions to the Parisians' 31-23 defeat in the Coupe de France final.

RAUL GONZALEZ (PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN HANDBALL COACH)

"We started the game very badly. They went 5-0 up, and it hurts to start like that. We didn't have the concentration we needed, but that's my fault too. Our next game is Barcelona and we need to change a lot of things. We need to concentrate and remember how we were playing before."

LUKA KARABATIC (PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN HANDBALL PIVOT)

"It was a complicated match. We were dragged down by our poor start throughout the match, and we also came up against a very strong Nantes team. We gave them confidence. It was an off day and we made a lot of individual and collective mistakes. We've come a long way, but we've still got some great goals ahead of us. Against Barcelona, we need to get back on track quickly. We have to stick together and stay united."

YOANN GIBELIN (PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN HANDBALL LEFT-BACK)

"It was a complicated final from the start. We fell behind quickly and tried to make up ground, but we weren't good enough to hope for the win. The season's not over, but it's a final and we're competitors."
