Zapping Foot National Interview – The underside of amateur football, with Romain Molina
What if a new surprise was on the horizon? In these 32nd finals which are currently totally crazy, marked by the exploits of Cannes, Espaly and Le Puy to name a few, RC Calais could well be added to the list. At half-time of his match against Strasbourg (L1), the National 3 resident, perfectly organized, actually did better than defend himself. At the Épopée stadium, it was even the northern club which had the best opportunity to open the scoring.
Harmless Strasbourg
After having already given a first thrill with a powerful strike next to the Strasbourg goal, Luca Pélissier inherited a penalty just before the break, after a foul by Guéla Doué in the area. But the Calaisien, unfortunately for him and his team, came across an impeccable Karl-Johan Johnsson (39th). The 34-year-old Swede relaxed all the way to deflect the attempt and avoid an uncomfortable situation for his team. Unable to impose its rhythm in this meeting, Strasbourg also only had one opportunity. On a ball lying around at the entrance to the Calais area, Sékou Mara found goalkeeper Nicolas Level on his way (37th). For the moment, everything remains to be done for the two Racing, 45 minutes before a potential penalty shootout…
