ASSE: a former Green reveals the X factor of Saint-Étienne

After ASSE's victory against MHSC a few days ago, Damien Perquis praised Geoffroy-Guichard's public contribution to the team.

Last Saturday, ASSE returned to victory after its defeat in the derby before the break. Facing the MHSC (1-0), the Greens took three very important points in the race to maintain their position. After 12 days, Saint-Étienne is 13th in the ranking.

Sainté knows how to receive

But there is one thing players can count on: their audience. At home, Sainté took… 12 of his 13 points! A crazy statistic, which proves to what extent Geoffroy-Guichard transcends this team. An observation shared by Damien Perquis, former defender and ASSE player.

“Saint-Étienne has, with its stadium and its supporters, something additional compared to the other candidates for retention. It's an important asset, but you still have to know how to take the public with you and at the start of the second half, they did it. In the first, if had managed to open the scoring, notably through Arnaud Nordin, there would have been no photo. There must have been a speech at the break from Olivier Dall'Oglio, who is looking to get his players to conquer this stadium, and Bouchouari's goal rewarded this start. This extra soul is decisive in this type of six-point match. We definitely shouldn't lose, but this victory is great for ASSE,” said Perquis, in l’After Foot of RMC.
