Matthieu Gaudin interview on Sens goal and bench role, Digi Mart USA News (France): In an interview with Le JSL, Matthieu Gaudin was asked first what the phrase “2006-07 season” evokes for him. He described incredible memories of a group of players who were not all close friends but who showed great respect for one another.
He recalled older players playing tarot and younger players playing poker, and said the group gradually grew comfortable together. Young coaches who allowed considerable freedom, supervised by two or three veterans such as Joc’ Ducloux and Martial Beaucaire, helped create what he called tremendous cohesion.
Asked about the 6th-round match at Sens, Gaudin recalled freezing temperatures and dense fog, with the stadium nearly empty. He said Sens played a very serious match, dominating his side before scoring.
The publisher’s article is paywalled after this point, so the remainder of the interview, including the full account of the goal, is not available in the supplied text.
