ASSE hosts Clermont in a promoted duel in the National 3 group. In this difficult start to the championship, the Greens are doing better with 4 points gleaned out of 6 possible in the last two matches. Here is the summary of the match, played this Sunday at 1:00 p.m.

Came into play: Fall
Summary of the meeting
The Greens started by hitting the post after just 2 minutes of play. From a corner, Ndiaye's header deserved better. The start of the match is good but Razik Nedder's players will be surprised by a cross to the far post where Makhloufi forgets his attacker. 1-0 for Clermont who made the perfect move by opening the scoring in the 20th minute. Igor Miladinovic sounds revolt but fails to win his face-to-face with the visitors' goalkeeper. On an innocuous action to restart Saint-Etienne, Ndiaye is the victim of a foul but the referee does not whistle, the attacker shifts his winger who scores in the empty goal. 2-0 for Clermont which dampens the hopes of ASSE. Just before half-time, Amougou in turn comes face to face with the goalkeeper but his flat foot does not deceive. 2-0 is the score at the break.
The Saint-Etienne coach tries to shake things up by bringing Cheick Fall into the midfield. With a header, Dieye reduces the score from a corner. 2-1. The Greens are throwing all their strength into the battle and are going to be crucified in the counter. 3-1 is the final score!
During their next meeting, the Greens will host Seyssinet at Etrat, a club from the Grenoble suburbs, currently bottom of the championship. The upcoming matches therefore promise to be extremely important in getting out of this dangerous zone. Razik Nedder's men will be keen to give themselves some breathing room after a timid start to the season.
