A deserved victory for ASSE
This Saturday at 9 p.m., ASSE faced Saidou Sow's team. After their defeat against Angers (2-4), Olivier Dall'Oglio's men were determined to react. Opposite, Strasbourg fielded an attractive team, made up of promising young talents. Despite this opposition, the Greens were able to resist in the first half and opened the scoring in the second half. On a corner from Louis Mouton, deflected to the near post by Lucas Stassin, Mickaël Nadé found the net. In the 52nd minute, ASSE leads 1-0.
The pace of the match intensifies: Strasbourg seeks to equalize, but Saint-Étienne remains threatening on the counterattack. On one of them, a cross from Léo Petrot, deflected, allowed Sissoko to double the lead with a header. The Greens lead 2-0 and manage the end of the match. Their third success is assured. Now it’s time for this Sunday’s derby, scheduled for 8:45 p.m.
Before this meeting, Louis Mouton spoke at the ASSE microphone, discussing the upcoming match against a great Strasbourg team.
“Strasbourg is a good opponent, they play well, they are young, they play good football. Now, I think that if we manage to be well established and coherent, we can succeed in hurting this team.”
Relive the Stéphanois week, which ended perfectly. At the end of the match, Olivier Dall'Oglio obviously congratulated his players.
Dall'Oglio's speeches
“Congratulations for the victory. Frankly, it was very good. What you have to remember is that we were very compact. The boys who came back were very efficient. We didn't concede a goal , we are super solid, disciplined, it's difficult for the opponent. We had big chances, we might be able to make one or two more next time. for that match, bravo, bravo! I think that's something you have to remember. I heard guys talking, communicating. That gives us even more confidence for the future.
The two goals came from fights, you broke away from the marking. Micka scored. Ibra was caught marking, the guy stuck him, but he pushed him to go and score. The fans in the stands can only be crazy to see you play like this. This is what they want to see, this is what you are, and we will continue like this. Okay guys? Well done to you!”
