Before this match, the Bressuirais displayed unfailing defensive solidity, with only 5 goals conceded in 11 matches. A total now almost doubled… It only took eight minutes for Périgny to already find the key to the lock, through Thiburce (0-1), already a scorer against Thouars a week earlier. Like the beginnings of the dream evening that awaited Damien Leclère's players? Ultimately no, since the locals did not take long to get their heads back on track, thanks to Nan Soueilem (1-1, 16th), as a fox, and Barreira (2-1, 33rd), with a header.
But the promoted player did not come as a victim and took advantage of the last minutes before the break to catch up with the inevitable Thiburce, on a set piece (2-2, 42nd). The momentum was for the Maritimes, who returned full of desire to the field. Their domination was concluded by Guemas (2-3, 53rd). Never before this season have the Bocains given in 3 times. They now had to whip.
The Thouarsese threat
The visitors defended their advantage against the opposing waves. And, as is often the case in such cases, a final counter allowed Sauvage (82nd) to seal the score (2-4). Périgny is indeed the leader when it comes to enjoying the holidays, but remains under threat from Thouars, big winner in La Rochelle (3-0), now two points behind with a game less. This probably won't spoil their New Year's Eve.
