ASC HLM de Dakar is one of the teams actively involved in moving up to Ligue 1 next season. Chosen by the wiwsport editorial team as the club of the weekend, the players spoke about the club’s objectives.
For El-Hadji Atta Ndoye, the club’s objective is not only to climb to Ligue 1. “We have a good group, that’s why we are having a good season. If we won 5 matches out of 9 possible, it’s because we did a good job with our coach. We will try to win other matches to not only ensure promotion to Ligue 1, but also to be champion of Ligue 2,” reveals the author of 3 goals and 5 assists this season.
Asked about his teammate, Papis Badiane, he is convinced that Badiane can indeed finish top scorer in the championship. “He has everything he needs to finish with this trophy. He is a good worker, but above all motivated for the club’s objective. Papis Badiane often says that individual trophies do not have too much importance for him, but I believe that he can indeed win the title of top scorer in Ligue 2,” explains El-Hadji Atta Ndoye.
El Hadji Amadou Sall is optimistic about reaching the elite of Senegalese football. He discussed their last match in an interview with Wiwsport: “Thank God because we went away there with a point. We are coming back to get back to work and better prepare for the last four days. Just like the other matches, we are preparing against Wallydaan. This is a decisive match for us and it is essential to win it. This will allow us to distance ourselves from the teams behind us and get closer to the teams in front for the climb. »
He continues: “We are on the right track, we have carefully examined our thirteen first leg matches against the opposing teams, identifying their strengths and weaknesses, and based on this we have trained sufficiently during this second part of the season. Which explains why we are now making fewer mistakes and we have started to score a lot of goals and concede fewer. Our problem was conceding a lot of goals, because we are the better attack. If you compare Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 teams, we score more, but concede the most. This is how we worked until we arrived near the podium. »
He expresses his optimism about the remaining four days: “Yes, I am extremely optimistic. Facing Wallydaan, we pray to God to grant us victory, as we train on what will enable us to win. After this match, we know all the other teams we have left. The climb has been the main objective since the start of the season. We only talked about that, it’s the mentality of all players to reach L1. There are few teams that have their own stadium, but for us that is not the case and we have a crowd that pushes us to win. »
“It is possible that we will win our next three or four matches, because we have the quality and the mentality to succeed. Indeed, Papis Badiane is able to finish top scorer of the season, thanks to his talent and his remarkable career. We will support him to continue his progress, promote the team’s victory and score goals, because a top scorer strengthens the team and, InshaAllah, he will finish as top scorer,” he concluded.
