Ajaccio scorer, Amiens continues its flawless performance at home

After the traditional multiplex, the ninth day of Ligue 2 continued this Saturday with a mid-table matchup between Amiens, eleventh, and Ajaccio, twelfth. Undefeated at home since the start of the season with four victories, the Amiens were quick to make the difference in front of their home crowd. Unbalanced by Sollacarro in the Ajaccio area, Mafouta obtained a penalty and did himself justice by finding the top corner (1-0, 2nd).

A few minutes later, Kylian Kaïboue doubled the lead (2-0, 38th) before young Moussa Soumano reduced the gap just before the break (2-1, 42nd). Returning from the locker room, the Corsicans tried to get back into this match by putting pressure on the edge of the Picardy area but the locals resisted and took advantage of the opponent’s technical clumsiness to maintain this short but precious advantage. In the final moments, Mafouta finally scored twice on a generously awarded penalty (3-1, 90+4th). In the ranking, Amiens temporarily rises to 7th place. For its part, Ajaccio remains 12th.
