Pacquiez suspended
The FFF disciplinary committee was intransigent towards Gaëtan Paquiez by imposing a three-match suspension on him after a gesture of humor. Against Villefranche in the Coupe de France (1-1, 10 tab to 9), the Grenoble captain had deliberately sent the ball into the face of an opponent on a touchline. Absent in Troyes (0-0), the defender will serve his second suspension match against Istres on Saturday. He will also be deprived of the Amiens reception on December 7.
Quite a few uncertainties at the GF
Sick and feverish, Jessy Benet did not train this weekend. He is doubtful for the Cup meeting. Injured, Pape Meïssa is also in doubt. Allan Tchaptchet is just starting to recover. Junior Olaitan did not train either because he had to return to Troyes for legal reasons: with other teammates, he had collected smoke bombs thrown by disgruntled Trojan supporters and had thrown them towards the stands at the end of the season last. Returning injured from selection, Efe Sarikaya is out although he could have hoped for playing time in the Cup.
The declaration
“The staff gave us feedback on Istres and we know that we should never neglect a National 2 team. Especially since we will be away. You must not put yourself in the shoes of the favorite. A lot can happen in a Cup match, mentality will be important. We will have to control our emotions. » By Loris Mouyokolo, Grenoble defender.
