RAF – Pau: Rodez wants to “switch to the right side” against Pau

“For 7 games, we have not lost while producing crazy matches. However, we remain close to the red zone because we are missing victories to progress in the general classification,” analyzes Ruthenian goalkeeper Lionel Mpasi. “Against Pau, winning is important because it’s a game to move to the right side of the standings.”

A game that the Aveyron goalkeeper will not play, just like his defense partner, Loni Laurent, both men being suspended. “Last year we had high quality results with a crazy team. This season, I feel that something is happening. I see all these matches that we are offering filled with intense moments. Let’s beat Pau, let’s win then in Clermont-Ferrand to confirm all our good feelings, especially since during our last match, in Caen, victory was really not far away.”

Value performance

The challenge of this meeting, against the Palois, is to gain three points to enhance the performances of a group which has the best attack in Ligue 2 but on the contrary the 16^e defense. As long as the RAF cannot balance its defensive system, it will not be able to play a role in the championship. This objective of erasing this deficiency has been the work of the last few days for the coach, Didier Santini, who took advantage of the elimination of his team in the Coupe de France to complicate the approach to his goal.
