3 The defense bends but does not break
Before finding themselves in numerical superiority, after the expulsion of Youté (48′), Brest suffered against enterprising Le Havre. For his return to the central hinge, Chardonnet reassured. But his team was still scared. Rassoul Ndiaye even found the bar (41′). At home, Brest has not conceded a goal since losing against OM.
4 The first red card of the season
While Abdoulaye Ndiaye did not go far from the red in the first period, Massadio Haïdara did not escape it in the second period. After a sole on Loïc Nego (17′), he caught Issa Soumaré’s jersey, earning him a second yellow (73′), leaving his teammates ten against ten.
