This evening, Saturday October 26, at the Clément Ader stadium, at 6 p.m., huge derby in the French football cup, against neighboring Colomiers, a club which plays a notch above in National 3.
AS Muret has had an excellent run so far in this premier event, with four victories in four matches, always with flattering scores at FCMT, US Vallon, Toulouse Cheminots and Saint-André Sangonis. But there, it's a big piece that presents itself, the second club in the Region, behind TFC, FC Colomiers.
ASM has a strong taste for the French Cup, having reached the stage of the 32nd finals several times, notably twice against the prestigious club AS Monaco. One evening in January 1994, the Clément Ader stadium was packed, the public was able to see the Etorri, Thuram, Petit, Djorkaeff and other Klinsmann and Sonor, internationals who we were then able to see in exceptional careers. A memory that many former members of the club would like to renew.
This requires a big match to continue the adventure. And experience these moments of happiness again, drinking from the cup to the dregs!
Even if the Regional 1 championship remains the number 1 objective, this cup has a delicate flavor to further conceal the links between players, staff and managers. Thus, consolidating the group as a whole because the championship is difficult. With 1 victory, 2 draws and 1 defeat, we must be vigilant. Even if the reserve follows in Regional 2 with a good run in the middle of the table.
The euphoria of a victory this evening can give wings to players and the entire club to continue the work of overhauling ASM and rediscover its past of yesteryear. Adventures which allowed several people trained here to get to know the professional world like Dominique Casagrande, Éric Carrière, Flavien Tait or Romain Sans, among others.
