[ASSE-MHSC] ASSE without Mickaël Nadé, Dylan Batubinsika: “Montpellier is more our championship”

For EVECT, at the end of the match against Olympique Lyonnais, lost 1-0 at Groupama Stadium, the AS Saint-Etienne players were necessarily planning on the next championship match against our Pailladins.

Starting with Louis Mouton, midfielder: “ Now we have to hang on. We still did positive things. We came up against a great team from Lyon who hurt us and who knew how to be realistic. We will have to get back up against Montpellier in our championship. »

Dylan Batubinsika, central defender, succeeded him and had an even more winning speech: “ We are on the right track, we must continue to progress and not rest on our laurels. With work, we will become better from week to week. At the beginning, we were a little afraid of Ligue 1, now we are there and we have the level to stay there. The next match against Montpellier is more about our championship, it is with this type of team that we will fight to maintain our position. It's an important and decisive match in this first part of the championship. We will have to win. »

Finally, the bad news for AS Saint-Étienne after the derby is the injury to Mickaël Nadé, victim of a foul not called by the referee, which will deprive him of a good month of competition according to The Team. He suffers from an external sprain of the lateral ligament of his right knee. This is a real blow for Olivier Dall'Oglio who had found defensive solidity with the Mickaël Nadé – Dylan Batubinsika pair.
