The third pass. For the third consecutive year and its big return to the professional world, FC Annecy has turned the counter at Roudourou, its second home. A second home where FCA feels like a rooster in pastry with ten goals scored, three conceded (4-0, 4-1 and 2-2) and the sweet satisfaction of chilling on the couch thinking back to this host who was closed to the idea of opening the door wide to the draft last summer when FCA was sleeping outside.
A bygone era for FC Annecy, now firmly anchored in Ligue 2 thanks to its attractive away appearance, where no one has competed over the long term since its last visit here at the beginning of February.
A forgotten penalty
A confirmation seen from the fourth minute when the Anneciens already took the lead. In the center circle, Djoco blocked Gomis’s clearance. Larose’s raid then benefited Kouadio whose cross back offered a second goal in two matches to Demoncy (1-0, 4e).
Virtual leader of L2, FCA then suffocated its opponent. And Demoncy, still him, did not let Gomis breathe, still him, and took advantage of the missed control of the Guingamp defender to go and challenge Basilio before being dried by the central. A flagrant penalty forgotten by Mr. Gaillouste.
Small decision, big consequence. Four minutes later, the best passer in Ligue 2 adjusted his sights to deliver his fifth offering in five days to Sidibé, who was on the lookout to head in a ball that had grazed the top of Soukouna’s head (1-1, 22e).
The physiognomy of the meeting then changed completely with the Bretons reinvigorated where the former Annecien Siwe came close to playing a nasty trick on his ex (33e42e48e) when Sagna urged Escales to be extremely vigilant (28e).
But after having let the storm pass, FC Annecy was going to sting again through Soukouna (44e) but above all Drouhin, who scored with a header for the second time this season on a new gift from the indispensable Demoncy (2-1, 65e). A new advantage erased by the sacred stroke of Hemia to heal his fourth goal scored… from outside the area this season.
A good way, thanks to the parade of Escales on Siwe at the end of the night (90+3e), to launch an exciting week of eight days and three matches before welcoming Troyes (Tuesday, 8:30 p.m.) and traveling to Bastia (Friday, 8 p.m.).
