Bruno Irlès : his starting team composition was as expected with turnover in offensive positions and the benching of Yanis Merdji. Mutyaba is in position 9 nine and a half behind Andy Carroll, Bahassa is on the right, and Amadou Diallo on the left. In the middle, Thomas Trazié starts due to the suspension of Adrien Louveau. In defense, they are the best in positions at the moment. After a dull first half, Irlès takes out Mutyaba for Merdji which unlocks the match. The determination, mobility and activity of the former Concarneau player transformed the meeting. He scored two magnificent first-time goals. Then, Irlès rotates its squad and uses its 4 changes in preparation for the trip on Wednesday evening to face Le Poiré-Sur-Vie. The Bordeaux coach managed his match perfectly.
Lassana Diabaté : little worried by the opposing attackers, he made THE necessary save on the only dangerous strike from Saint-Pryvé in the 30th. He relaxes well and diverts the ball for a corner.
Cédric Yambéré : there is always a moment in a Cédric Yambéré match where he throws himself into a duel and is passed by his opponent. This match is no exception to the rule. Fortunately, it is of no consequence. The captain of the Girondins delivered a solid match with good defensive coverage, and an assertive captain's role to speak with the referee and his partners.
Jean Grillot : He is consistent in the high level of performance in his position, in National 2. These defensive interventions are decisive and determined. He anticipates trajectories perfectly and is very mobile. He delivered a perfect match.
Driss Trichardt : he did not save his efforts on his left side with incessant races to split and provide an offensive solution to Diallo. Unfortunately, his English partner never served him. He was serious defensively. He is a passer on Bordeaux's second goal.
Nathanael Bai : applied on the defensive level, he sometimes proposed doubling with Soufiane Bahassa, less often than Driss Trichard. He was solid defensively. He played as a right back.
Thomas Trazié : too low in the first period, he was often a meter behind his opponent on pressures. Furthermore, in this first act, he commits a foul which could have cost him a red card, but fortunately the referee says nothing. During the second half, he played higher, and his complementarity with Depussay improved. He is also very precise technically and in his ball transmissions. Replaced by N.Fofana in the 87th.
Émeric Depussay : he has a lot of technical waste in his ball transmissions. In addition, he projects very little forward even though he had situations with space to do so. However, he scratched a lot of balls from the opponent and had a powerful shot on target in the second half. Replaced by Ranem in the 90th. The latter scores a disallowed goal.
Amadou Diallo : He runs very fast, but doesn't use the ball well. His feints do not surprise the defenders. Thus, he will often impale himself on his opponents and, above all, he never serves Driss Trichard who offers him a solution on the side. We saw the Bordeaux defender rail on several occasions about this. Replaced at the end of the match by Diaby in the 82nd.
Soufiane Bahassa : we prefer it on the left on its good foot, rather than on its wrong foot on the right. Nevertheless, he has enormous activity whether attacking or defending on the entire right side. It cannot be saved. Punchy, it is also technically precise.
Travis Mutyaba : fast and lively on the first supports, he is also technically clumsy and cannot combine well with his partners. Replaced at half-time by Yanis Merdji. The latter scores a double and transforms the team's game. He brings power, speed in the game, availability for his partners, and above all, he has the confidence to try to score with first intention. This double should launch his season. This is the Yanis Merdji we love.
Andy Carroll : more discreet than usual, he gives the ball to Merdji with a superb pass on the first goal. After the 2-0 he tried to score his goal with power, but the opposing defense channeled it well. In addition, he still places a diving header on the crossbar. Bordeaux varied their game by relying much less on Carroll. In fact, the latter returned throughout the first period inside the game.
