"Even I did not think we were going to do it"

Always with a smile, Eddie Sawailau had it even bigger after the tie snatched by the FCG against the RCT.

It has been a difficult week for the club and for the players?

"It has been a difficult week for us. Morale was not good Monday, Tuesday. The departure of Bernard, we got away with it. We got back together as a team. We trained on Wednesday, Thursday. The oldest players told us we were going to show them what we could do, that we would correct our mistakes from the last game in Bordeaux. The guys got up today. In the last few minutes, we did not believe it. Even I did not think we were going to do it. But congratulations to the guys for their efforts in the last 2, 3 minutes. Me, and all the players, we were very happy at the end of the game. "

At 0-17, and with one player down in the 35th minute, it was hard to believe ...

"In the first half we were completely off. In the locker room, at the half-time, the coaches talked a lot to us. We had to go back and let go on the ground. And we finally managed to score the try to get the draw. "

You played against Ma'a Nonu, is he an important player for you?

"Play with these players, with whom I grew up when I was in Fiji ... I did not imagine playing with or against such great players as Ma'a Nonu, Mathieu Bastareaud, Bryan Habana, Nigel Hunt, Gio Aplon ... It is a privilege for me to play rugby, with or against them. And tonight we had a good game of rugby. "
