Zapping Foot National Laure Boulleau: “I imagine a sequence where Mbappé talks about a Les Bleues match…”
A logical advantage. AS Saint-Étienne is currently hosting Racing Club de Lens as part of the eighth day of Ligue 1. A meeting which sees, for the moment, the Northern club leading by the smallest of margins thanks to an achievement from Przemyslaw Frankowski in the 20th minute of play. Everything still remains to be done in the second half.
A more than logical advantage
From the first seconds of play, the visitors will put their foot on the ball and get closer to the last meters of the opposing team. Immediately, AS Saint-Étienne will reveal its plan and quickly explode into a counterattack. The latter will not give anything but should give a foretaste of the meeting. From the fourth minute of play, Abdukodir Khusanov will pierce the Saint-Etienne layers during a placed attack and try his luck from afar. Gauthier Larsonneur diverts and sees M’Bala Nzola regain the ball but is unable to recover it. A few moments later, the Racing Club de Lens continues to surge in front of the Green Wall. Andy Diouf attempts a magnificent volley deflected from the knee by Gauthier Larsonneur. Florian Sotoac collects the ball at the edge of the area but then misses the target.
At the start of the second quarter of an hour of play, Adrien Thomasson will deflect a ball with his hand into his penalty area. The referee, however, does not whistle a penalty in a confused action. In the 20th minute of play, Will Still’s men will logically open the scoring. At the edge of the area, Przemyslaw Frankowski attempts a floating shot from the edge of the area. Gauthier Larsonneur sees nothing except the ball ending its journey into the back of the net. Shortly before the half-hour mark, the ball will drag into the Lensois area. Ibrahim Sissoko is however countered by Kévin Danso. In the 39th minute of play, the Sang et Or were in good shape. Nzola tries to get around the Greens goalkeeper but thus closes the angle. At the start of added time, Mathis Ammougou saw a ball come back at him just at the edge of the area. While Brice Samba was completely beaten, the Stéphanois failed to score! The score will not change until we return to the locker room.
To summarize
A logical advantage. AS Saint-Étienne is currently hosting Racing Club de Lens as part of the eighth day of Ligue 1. A meeting which sees, for the moment, the Northern club leading by the smallest of margins thanks to an achievement from Przemyslaw Frankowski in the 20th minute of play.
