Present at a press conference before going to challenge Clermont as part of the 35th day of Ligue 1, Dejan Lovren (33) returned to the historic victory of his team against Montpellier (5-4) last weekend. Faced with journalists, the Croatian defender notably underlined the irreproachable state of mind of his teammates before admitting that this success remained as one of his best memories in his career.
“It’s a shame we couldn’t talk about the Montpellier match. It happens once every 10 years, such a scenario. I have never seen a team lose 4-1 in the 60th and win 5-4. It highlights character and courage, it gives us strength. As soon as we scored, we didn’t celebrate, we took the ball and got back in place to believe until the end. This week we had fun on the pitch, we talked about this match. This match against Montpellier is an experience. The tactic was to score 5 goals (laughs). Matches like that, you can’t say anything. It’s more the heart and the mind, you had to believe in it. It’s in the top 3 games of my career, with Liverpool-Dortmund and Liverpool-Barça.
