Hérouville and the Dives-Cabourg reserve team will face each other on neutral ground, Sunday May 12, 2024 (3:00 p.m.). The Normandy Football League made this decision due to incidents which punctuated the post-match, Sunday April 21, 2024 (0-0).
The two teams opposed each other a first time as part of the eleventh day of Regional 2. The match, which was to take place at the Heurtematte stadium in Dives, was reversed following three postponements. The chance of the calendar offers a second round almost straight away.
A match behind closed doors
Only, he was not no question for the SUDC to return to the Prestavoine stadium after clashes following the meeting, which was already tense (eleven yellow cards and one expulsion). The league, which requested reports from the coaches and captains of the two teams, relocated the debates. Hérouvillais and Divais will face each other more than 30 kilometers from the two clubs and behind closed doors.
This decision is rare. In 2020, Hérouville, then in Regional 3, played again against Thiberville on neutral ground after the match was stopped at half-time, in Thiberville.
Hérouville is second in R2 with two points ahead of Dives-Cabourg. The two clubs have one game less than the leader, Mézidon. Mézidon is two points ahead of Hérouville. Like Dover, these teams are fighting for promotion to Regional 1.
Furthermore, the SCH will have the response to his appeal before the French Football FederationTuesday April 30, 2024. Hérouville contests the withdrawal of four points against Mézidon.
