ASSE, back in Ligue 1 this season, hoped to restore its image after a deserved rise. However, this start of the year regularly turns into a nightmare with a series of humiliations which disgust the supporters and put Olivier Dall'Oglio under pressure. A look back at five painful moments which symbolize this shipwreck.
August 31, 2024: Brest 4-0 ASSE
Third consecutive defeat and first big blow of the season. The Brestois, led by an omnipresent Lala, an imperial Ajorque and an in-form Mahdi Camara, are having fun against a beleaguered Saint-Etienne defense. This match already marks a first setback in ASSE's ambitions.
September 20, 2024: Nice 8-0 ASSE
One of the worst moments in the club's recent history. A real debacle at the Allianz Riviera, after a promising victory against Lille. The Stéphanois are swept away by a Nice on fire. The score reflects the gulf between the two teams. A humiliation which will remain engraved in the memories and which made all the green people tremble.
October 26, 2024: Angers 4-2 ASSE
In a crucial duel between poorly ranked players, the Stéphanois disappoint once again. Despite a double from Davitashvili, defensive errors are costly. Faced with an Angers team well within their reach, the Greens bowed, confirming their inability to manage the pressure.
November 10, 2024: AXIS 0-1 OL
Certainly, this defeat in the derby is not a humiliation on an accounting level. But losing a derby is never a trivial thing. Some have even pointed out the lack of aggressiveness of the Stéphanois at Groupama. A derby is not played, it is won.
November 30, 2024: Rennes 5-0 ASSE
Another slap in the face for a team already on the brink of collapse. In Rennes, the Stéphanois foundered without resistance. This 5-0 confirms the collective impotence of ASSE, unable to compete against a Rennes team that is far from unstoppable. These poor performances raise questions about Olivier Dall'Oglio's choices. The cup is full. It's up to him to find solutions before it's too late.
