This Friday evening, Laurent Guyot’s players return to their Sports Park with, in the back of their minds, the desire to erase the defeat conceded, a week earlier, in Lorient (4-2). Undefeated for six days, they had been “offended” says the FC Annecy coach. So for this return home and against Laval, the FCA did not want to stall and wanted to offer the 5,362 supporters present a fourth consecutive success at home.
Yet another new scorer
When they arrived in Haute-Savoie, the Mayennais had the stats on their side. Two victories in as many visits to Annecy, enough to give you wings and it was they who fired the first banderillas with a header on the Escales crossbar (3′) and a ball along the Annecy goal line (19′) . Laval put the pressure on, the locals had to react. If Demoncy’s header (23′) and Kashi’s shot (25′) did not find the target, Anthony Bermont (27′) confirmed that this season Annecy almost always scores first (9 times out of 10). Forgotten at the far post, the attacker on loan from Lens hit the mark. His first goal with FC Annecy on the day of his second start and the twelfth scorer since the start of the season for the Annecy club.
Larose doubles down
As soon as they returned from the locker room, Kapit Djoco (48′) on an offering from Demoncy missed the ball for 2 to 0, his spiked ball grazing the left post of the Laval goal. Not much to sink your teeth into, until this new flash of genius from Antoine Larose (70′). Slalom between three defenders Mayenne and bingo! Third achievement for him this season and now alone at the top of the ranking of Annecy scorers. The end of the match took place in management mode and Laurent Guyot rotated his squad. Two to zero, final score. This year, Laval will not have ruled the roost at the Parc des sports. It was well worth a little clapping of the players with the Raiders 74 kop.
And now, the derby!
Last week’s defeat is definitely one of the bad memories. With this fifth success in ten daysFC Annecy resumed its march forward and . Enough to approach the Alps derby with confidence. Tuesday, Laurent Guyot’s men will be in Grenoble with the firm intention of playing a bad trick on their Isère neighbors.
