VIDEO: Toulouse manager goes to new lengths with emotive pre-match team talk that stopped relegation

Magic. Pure magic.

As great escapes go, Toulouse can expect a Leicester-esque title surge next season. Five wins and three draws in their last 10 games saw the south of France outfit climb to Ligue 1 safety with a miraculous revival but they still travelled to Angers on the last day needing a win to secure their top flight status. So manager Pascal Dupraz delivered an inspirational team talk on the eve of the game to stir his boys. He capped it off with a video. Messages of support, of love, from fans and family. It left tears in the room. It left the Toulouse players with no doubt what they were going out to play for. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EP4pEzVRdg 2-1 down in Angers, 12 minutes to go. Game over? Season over? No way. Two goals in two minutes showed the spirit was alive and well amongst the Toulouse players as they came back from the dead to secure a remarkable comeback. Another that saved their season. And the celebrations afterwards were sheer joy. Sheer emotion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3X-Efla7J0
