Last Sunday, during the meeting between Montpellier and Nice at the Mosson stadium, a former Pailladin, Gaëtan Laborde, distinguished himself by scoring a superb goal against his former club. True to the affection he still has for MHSC, the striker did not celebrate his goal, raising his arms in apology.
An attitude praised by many Montpellier supporters, who were quick to compare it to that of Rémy Cabella, another former emblematic player of the club. Unlike the player trained at Haillon, the Corsican, now at LOSC, regularly celebrates his goals or those of his partners against Montpellier, fueling lasting resentment among the supporters.
On Twitter, they reminded him that it was possible to show restraint, like Laborde. Once again, the 2012 French champion did not remain silent, relaunching the debate and justifying his behavior by initial tensions with the Pailladin public, and lowering himself to a comment on the absence of the Champions League.
What a story.
