A gap somewhat erased in recent weeks, the lack of efficiency once again weighed down RC Lens in Auxerre (2-2)this Saturday. A chronic illness which inevitably limits the ambitions of the Sang et Or according to Walid Acherchourcolumnist for “After Foot” on RMC.
RC Lens facing its glass ceiling?
“We knew it, but we saw that winning at Auxerre was not easy. But as much as I’m not too thrilled with what Lens has been doing since the start of the season, I think they would have deserved better in this match. The problem is once again efficiency. Nzola scores in the first half (1-2, 45+1′) but trashes a lot of situations before that with some not crazy choices. El Aynaoui’s opener (0-1, 22′) is deserved given the scenario, but you take this magnificent free kick from Perrin behind (1-1, 31′).
Then Lens resumed its march forward, dominating the match a little more with Khusanov still gigantic behind. You regain the advantage at the end of the first half, then you get trapped again in the second half. At the end of the match, there were attempts that had to hit the mark and they were unable to make the difference. Lens failed to get going after their good results in recent weeks. Efficiency is a recurring problem and this is what will, I think, cost them the European places. »
