A few days before the Ligue 1 derby in Bollaert, Saturday, the Lensoises gave a football lesson to the Lille in front of a packed stand at the Villeneuve-d’Ascq Stadium. Dominated in all areas of the game, Yacine Guesmia’s players did not exist.
« We set ourselves the goal of having a big match. It’s hard to find negative points. It was important for the club », smiles Sarah M’Barek, the Sang et Or coach.
Applied Lensoises
The first experience of the derby was, however, painful for the new LOSC coach: “ We missed it completely, in the intensity, in the duels, in the self-sacrifice. It was a non-game for the entire team. »
After the first fifteen minutes of observing each other, Lens took the upper hand. More aggressive in attack and well established in defense, the Sang et Or imposed themselves in the duels and, after several aborted chances, Aude Gbedjissi opened the scoring (0-1, 21e).
“We missed it completely, in the intensity, in the duels, in the self-sacrifice. It was a non-game for the entire team. »
The Lille women found few solutions, regularly cut short in their efforts. Only one real opportunity to note, at the half-hour mark: launched by Naomie Bamenga, Jessy Roux took her chance, but the ball ended up in the goalkeeper’s gloves.
Collapsed to the ground after a twisted knee, the attacker had to be taken out on a stretcher (29e), to the cheers of the public. Second hard blow for LOSC.
In the second half, the players returned under a thick drizzle, but to the same standards as in the first, with Racing imposing its rhythm in a game interrupted by a shower of cards. LOSC, which was unable to get back on track with the match, then suffered Lens’ attacks, rewarded with two other goals.
The return of Nesryne El Chad
By Alizée Mereau, on the lookout (0-2, 66e). Then, fifteen minutes later, by Emma Smaali, on a free kick sent directly into the hands of the goalkeeper, at fault (0-3, 81e). « I think she didn’t expect it and I took advantage of it », Commented the scorer.
The return, after a year of absence and a rupture of the cruciate ligaments, of Nesryne El Chad for the last ten minutes changed nothing. “ We always hope for a victory, but 3-0 is perfect. Especially against a team that has qualities, continues Emma Smaali. We were efficient behind and up front. I think we deserved it. »
