No Ligue 2 championship this week. It's the French Cup with the 7th round. Stade Lavallois makes its entry into the competition this Saturday afternoon. Short trip for Mayenne footballers, to the neighbors of Vitré, Nationale 3 club. A duel on paper to the advantage of the Laval pros.
To win in Ille-et-Vilaine, the tango technical supervision will almost call on the typical team. Now is not the time for experiments. Objective: to qualify and with style, a form of respect for the opponent indicates coach Olivier Frapolli: “I'm not here to experiment. There are boys who want to show themselves, who apply, who have long teeth and it's the right time to do it but it's not the moment to turn everything upside down.”
Center forward Siriné Doucouré will start, a good opportunity for him to show what he is capable of, to regain confidence and to have playing time. The French Cup is a competition that he appreciates. Last year, with Valenciennes, he particularly shone: “It was a clearing because in the championship it was very complicated. It was a great adventure. I qualified the club at Saint-Priest. We went to Rouen and we won. We went to Lyon in the semi-finals and that's it. was a good experience in front of thousands of spectators. I think it's a great goal for the group to achieve that this year. Now, we're going to respect our opponent, we're going to act as if it were a League match. 2 to avoid being surprised.
