Sunday November 3, on behalf of the 4e round of the French Cup, the Marnavalaises held their own against the Alsatians of Musau Strasbourg, residents of Regional 1, before finally giving in, without demerit, far from it (0-2).

What would have happened, in the 62nd minute, if the referee had not called a foul by Manon Jarillot, about to strike, while the goal was deserted by the Alsatian goalkeeper, on the ground after being telescoped with one of his players, the summary judge considering that it was the Marnavalaise who made a mistake in the action? Nobody will know. What we do know, however, is that the daughters of Christophe Legros, who play a division above the Alsatians, did not take a beating as was the case last year against this same training. It was on behalf of the 4e round of the Grand Est Cup and the Marnavalaises had suffered a scathing setback (7-0).
Certainly, this time again, they were beaten by these same Alsatians, on behalf of the 4e round of the French Cup, but they leave the competition with their heads held high, despite conceding two goals. The first, in the 28', a volley from the right from Bitterlin, following a cross from Gemcogler (0-1). The second shortly after returning from the locker room, a header from the starter, Richard, following a corner (0-2, 54').
Certainly, the score could have been heavier, but Lucile Golfier, in Marnaval's goal, made many saves. She repelled a point-blank shot from Schoenauer (8'), lay down perfectly on Magy's long-range attempt (10'), flew over Bitterlin's head (68'), courageously came out in the feet of Richard (72'), before a final save on Siamey's shot (90'+2').
The Marnavalaises not rewarded
Attention ! The meeting was not an attack-defense. Christophe Legros' daughters certainly played low and the Alsatians had possession of the ball, but the Marnavalaises carried the danger to the opposing goal as soon as they could, notably through Manon Jarillot, alone at the forefront.
Although it was not an easy game, the Marnaval attacker went to challenge the Alsatian goalkeeper, she bravely tried her luck, but an Alsatian put the ball in for a corner (22'). Just before the break, Manon Jarillot was not more successful. Her first attempt found the opposing goalkeeper and the second was cleared in front of her line by an Alsatian (38')! The local center forward, courageous, like her partners, still has the strength to find herself in the opposing area, but the Musau Strasbourg goalkeeper beats her to the foot.
The Marnavalaises were not rewarded for their efforts and left the French Cup with their heads held high.

Coach's words
Christophe Legros (Marnaval coach): “It doesn't amount to much. I am proud of the girls. The disappointment on their faces says it all. At “0-2”, there is a decision coming from elsewhere. At 2-1, it's no longer the same match. We were able to raise the level of play. This must serve us well for the future. »
