There has been a lot of activity in recent days internally at Bourges FC, with the replacement of coach Walid Aichour by Romain Revelli.
Sadio Mané, the new owner of the club, also made his second visit with in his suitcases an assistant coach in the person of Lamine Sané, ex-Senegalese international and ex-captain of the Girondins. With the objective of winning at home and moving up the rankings. But the objectives were not achieved, with this new sharing of points, 0-0.
Granville also needed points and attacked the game without hesitation. It took ten minutes for the locals to worry about goalkeeper Reulet, but Taha's shot went wide of the post. The meeting was then rebalanced.
The red lantern did better than defend themselves, playing quality Football. Only the finish was lacking. And at the break, in freezing weather, the score was goalless.
Decisive reulet at the very end of the match
The match resumed with the same scenario. Latour gave the home fans a few chills but his shot went wide. Bourges, a little more inspired, had two great chances through Konaté on a corner which went close to the top corner (54'), then on a sublime header, which finished next to the Normandy cage (64').
Samba (73') had a good shot which goalkeeper Golitin managed to control (75'). Not enough to ignite the local fans, stunned and disappointed to see their team unable to win at home (only two victories since the start of the season!).
All that remained for Granville was to preserve this sharing of points obtained with guts. And it was goalkeeper Reulet who took care of it with a magnificent save in the 86the on a strike from Konate concluding a rise from Dembelé.
Rather encouraging for Granville, disappointing for Bourges whose ambitions we know. And the means!
