The coach of the first team of Vendée Les Herbiers Football may have paced back and forth, but he did not digest the referee's decision, officiating on Friday November 8 at Poiré-sur-Vie. The latter whistled a penalty in favor of the Genôts, who were trailing, in the 67the minute. The defensive return of Herbret midfielder Shelton Guillaume, on Noham Bensoula, however seemed correct.
“We can see that Shelton takes the ball and clears. We showed the images to the referee. His answer is: penalty. But he knows that there is no penalty… It's simply theft! said VHF coach, Laurent David. We played ten championship matches. We conceded seven goals, including three penalties which were invalid. In Saint-Pryvé, there are no penalties. In Châteaubriant, there are no penalties. Not tonight either. That’s a lot…”

“There may be something against us”
The Herbiers coach extended: “Obviously, there is rage. These decisions (arbitration) are difficult to accept. I don't know what's going on with Les Herbiers. I don't think we're in the way… Les Herbiers is a good club, well structured. Maybe there's something against us. There are questions to ask. » The Herbretais' next meeting will be the reception of AC Ajaccio, on November 15, during the seventh round of the Coupe de France. “The advantage of playing in Ligue 2 is that we have good referees,” a conclu Laurent David.
