the total slippage of Savanier against Puy-en-Velay

In addition to being pitifully eliminated from the Coupe de France yesterday as soon as it entered the fray, Montpellier was humiliated by Le Puy-en-Velay, resident of National 2, since it lost by a score of four goals to zero. Already in great difficulty in Ligue 1, where it is bottom, the MHSC will not take advantage of the Cup to offer itself a breath of fresh air. Quite the contrary with a Téji Savanier who did not fail to make people talk about him. During the match, when he was about to take a corner, supporters present at the stadium did not fail to ask him if it hurt to be last. And his response was straightforward: “When you earn 210,000 euros per month, it's okay.“

Savanier slips in the middle of the match!

An outing which will undoubtedly get people talking at a time when Jean-Louis Gasset did not hide his shame after the match: “The shame. A feeling of shame. It's a competition that could give us a little oxygen, we're going to analyze it carefully because we were swept away. We lost all the duels, missed the first two opportunities which could have changed the match. But mentally, it's very worrying. Since I arrived, we haven't scored a goal or taken a point away. I hoped that in another competition we could show more mental qualities. There, we gave up. Once we were behind, they played their game… There are two or three players opposite who wouldn't be out of place with us. Their 10 (Nicolas Pays), it seemed as if the ground was not bumpy for him whereas it was for us. This (Saturday) evening was the abyss, we'll have to get over it“.

Next meeting for the Héraultais: next Saturday January 4 at 9 p.m., at Groupama Stadium to challenge Olympique Lyonnais as part of the 16th day of Ligue 1.
