A start to the match well managed by Laurent Mortel's players who, despite the difficult current series (3 defeats in 3 matches) are showing themselves to be well engaged. Cindy Caputo then Sarah Stratigakis could have broken the deadlock very early in the meeting but we will have to wait a little. Before the half-hour mark, the Greens found this opening goal with a well-executed action. Chloé Tapia inherits an excellent ball in her left lane and adjusts the right cross from the surface to find Cindy Caputo who, with a header, leaves no chance to Constance Picaud (A.S. Saint-Etienne 1 – 0 F.C. Fleury 91, 29e). The chances favor the Greens who are a hair's breadth from suffering the equalizer in stride. Fleury gets a corner and with the mess in the area we see the ball being hit right on a post, on the rebound it is the Greens who clear this threat away. We play the end of the first period, the Greens remain vigilant to Fleury's attacks but the break is Stéphanois! Another headed goal and it is signed Fiona Bogi receiving an excellent free kick from Cindy Caputo (A.S. Saint-Etienne 2 – 0 F.C. Fleury 91, 39e). The end of the first period is longer than expected following the various interruptions of play and despite the 9 minutes being well spent, the Greens suffered but resisted and kept the score.

The second half does not deserve long tirades before the hour mark, the game has calmed down even if there are opportunities on both sides. Fleury is not sharp and the Greens are narrow in the last move. A final gesture that Sarah Stratigakis will carry out perfectly to try to ensure Saint-Etienne's success and score her first goal for the Greens (A.S. Saint-Etienne 3 – 0 F.C. Fleury 91, 62e). Fleury for his part at least finds the opportunity not to return mute from the Salif-Keita stadium with a reduction in the score from a long shot which escapes Maryne Gignoux (A.S. Saint-Etienne 3 – 1 F.C. Fleury 91, 66e). For the last quarter of an hour, Laurent Mortel makes two changes with the exits of Sarah Cambot and Sarah Stratigakis, it is Adèle Connesson and Faustine Bataillard who come into play. Faustine who shines from the moment she enters with a strike from the outside the surface which comes close to the amount of the Fleury goalkeeper. At the end of the match Solène Champagnac gives up her place for the entry of Maeva Maniouloux. The Greens then did not find themselves in the best position when Fleury took advantage again to reduce the score at the end of the match (A.S. Saint-Etienne 3 – 2 F.C. Fleury 91, 87e). Fleury believes in his comeback in added time but a justified offside position saves the Greens. Last anecdotal change for Laurent Mortel who replaces Amandine Pierre-Louis with Marine Perea. The Greens stand in the way and provide the essentials with 3 excellent points.

Stunning but almost overturned, it is a victory for the Greens who recover very important points. It's their turn to experience the derby next weekend before returning to the Salif-Keita public for the reception in .
