Zapping Foot National Interview – The underside of amateur football, with Romain Molina
The spectacle was more than present on the Ligue 2 pitches at the start of the afternoon. Three matches were actually played on the occasion of the eighth day, including the postponed match between AC Ajaccio and FC Martigues. In the latter, the island club was reduced to ten just moments before half-time (Benjamin Santelli). The Corsicans led thanks to a very good achievement by Christopher Ibayi, scored in the 22nd minute of play but will suffer the equalizer at the start of added time by Oupasse Mendy. In the 73rd minute of play, Kan Guy Kouassi will also be sent off and leave the ACA nine. However, the score will not change.
Clermont unfolds, Lorient well inspired
At the Gabriel-Montpied stadium, Clermont laid down the law against En Avant Guingamp. The locals actually won with a score of four goals to one thanks to Yohann Magnin (9th) and Ousmane Diop (15th), author of a very good sequence in the opposing penalty area. In the second half, the Auvergne club put the lid back on thanks to Famara Diedhiou (53rd) then a double from Ousmane Diop (56th). At the end of the match, the EAG will save the honor by Amadou Sagna. Thanks to this success, the CF63 moved up to thirteenth place.
This afternoon’s shock, for its part, concerned Stade Malherbe de Caen and FC Lorient. Dominated, the Norman club managed to open the score thanks to Tidiam Gomis in the 17th minute of play. The Merlus will continue to push and come back to the level around twenty minutes later through the inevitable Éli Junior Kroupi. The two teams will continue to engage in a real battle which will turn in favor of the Breton club. In the 87th minute of play, FCL took advantage of an opposing error to take a definitive advantage thanks to Mohamed Bamba.
The results
- Ajaccio 1 – 1 Martigues
- Clermont 4 – 1 Guingamp
- Caen 1 – 2 Lorient
To summarize
The spectacle was more than present on the Ligue 2 pitches at the start of the afternoon. Three matches were actually played on the occasion of the eighth day, including the postponed match between AC Ajaccio and FC Martigues.
