the essential
An environment that moves forward. With 9 goals to his name, Mathias Capdeville simply scored in each of the 6 rounds contested by the USJFC (31)! Itinerary of a player who is not particularly spoiled by fate… while his team (R1) dreams of a historic feat, Saturday November 30 (6 p.m.), by hosting the National team on its Georges-Beyney home ground.

Dallinga can go and get dressed… Best director of the victorious edition in 2023 with 6 units on the clock, the Batavian goleador of TFC has found his master, still in Haute-Garonne. Mathias Capdeville, left-handed attacking midfielder for USJFC, 27 years old, 1m72-72kg, has already scored 9 goals in 6 matches! “It’s true that I scored in every round. Now the main thing is not that I find the net, but that the team passes.”

The person concerned does not seem to realize the performance, so we summarize for him: a hat-trick in the first match in Granada (0-9), a goal against Juventus Papus (0-3), a double in Giroussens (0-3), another achievement in Pamiers (1-3), a penalty in front of Pibrac (2-2, 4-2 tab), a last goal in Montferrand in the 7the round two weeks ago (0-4). “The staff tells me that this year I am a Cup player,” smiles Capdeville. “For the record, coach Grégory Sorroche took me out on the hour mark when we entered the fray (2eT) because otherwise I would have put 5 he joked.”

Before “finding the right shoe for me here in R1 (6e div.) with a bunch of friends who come to training wearing bananas – the best choice of my career”, Mathias Capdeville didn't laugh too much.

Generation Diop, Sangaré, Cafaro, etc.

“I started in Gers at L'Isle-Jourdain where my parents lived at the age of 5. Then, I landed at TFCen pre-training at 13; I stayed there until I was 20 – long back injury when I came of age I am ''a 1997 generation''; will not have the chance to sign professionally When I think back, at the Center, it was a good life: the slightest thing, you are taken care of, it’s funny afterwards…”

Three-four months “going in circles”, contacts “but in Andorra”, a trial in “which did not succeed”. “I talk to Fleurance and, finally, I commit.”

in the January transfer window then a season and a half later, stop Covid. “The club didn’t want to keep me either, rewinds the left-hander. There, an acquaintance called me and there I found myself at L’Union in the summer of 2020!” Happiness is as simple as a phone call… “I found pleasure in playing again, in showing my true face,” says the man who is also a salesman in the building industry (insulation materials). Here too, he has I had to earn it: small jobs here and there before signing my permanent contract.”

Did you say epic?

And it is not a new avatar (the Crusaders in August 2022) which prevents Mathias Capdeville from charting his course. How far? “All the opponents we encountered and were eliminated were inferior to us. We just enforced the hierarchy. We are aware of that, and the coach has repeated it to us. In the meantime, the epic could begin this Saturday evening…”
