Entering at the very end of the match between RC Lens and Olympique de Marseille, Saturday at Bollaert (1-3), Elye Wahi (22 years old) was booed by the Artesian public. However, the latter owes him a debt of gratitude…
Elye Wahi will long remember his return to Lens on Saturday (1-3). Launched by Roberto De Zerbi in place of Neal Maupay in added time, the OM striker was treated to a barrage of whistles from the stands of the Bollaert stadium. RC Lens supporters wanted to punish his poor last season, when he wore the blood and gold jersey before leaving Artois to sign for OM.
Wahi, last RC Lens striker to score at Bollaert!
Since then, the pill seems bitter. However, the 22-year-old can boast of being the last striker to have scored in Ligue 1. It was against Montpellier HSC on May 19. That's 624 minutes of play. Since then, no real RC Lens attacker has scored in Bollaert.
“Even the RCL goal is sluggish”
“Even the RCL's goal is sluggish,” worries Grégory Lallemand, journalist for La Voix du Nord. This club has already gone down with attacking lines on paper that are no less strong. 2008: Monterrubio, Carrière, Rémy, Aruna, Monnet-Paquet, Maoulida. 2011: Jemaa, Maoulida, Monnet-Paquet, Eduardo. » Suffice to say that Will Still has his work cut out for him to boost his offensive sector.
