The match. The Berri suffered a shipwreck and is brain dead…
90e+5 BUUUUT!!!! The chalice down to the dregs. Sanghare plants the final nail on the castelroussin coffin. (2-7)
90e+1 BUUTTTT!!!!!! Nsimba does it again, for his fourth goal of the evening (2-6)
84e BUUTTTTTTT! Versini again, rolls in a new left shot which deceives Lavallée. But why didn't this player start the match? (2-5)
68e BUUTTTTTTT! And fifth goal for Aubagne, hat-trick for Nsimba! Nehari is on the receiving end of a distant free kick and serves caviar to the Provencal striker. (1-5)
62e BUUUTTTTT! The Aubagne defender is blocked, Tormin recovers the ball and launches Versini who rolls his ball from the left into the Lavallée goal (1-4)
59e Finally a (small) opportunity for Berri, Duterte throws Clairicia who passes it to Tormin, Berrichon's shot is off target.
48e BUUUUTTTTT! Konaté's clearance is blocked by Nsimba, Benhattab recovers the ball and gives it back to Nsimba, alone facing the Berri goalkeeper whom he mystifies a fourth time (0-4).
46e Triple change for Berri at the break Agounon for Wandji, Versini for Mendy and Samaké for Kamissoko.
Half time The Castelroussins come out to the (deserved!) whistles of the spectators. They have just had a subpar first period, conceding three and without creating a single opportunity.
43e BUUUTTTTTTT!!! Ridiculed, Berri concedes a third goal. Benhattab has fun in front of Duterte and serves a perfect ball for Tafni who crucifies Konaté. (0-3)
33e The contacts become more and more harsh. Foul by Khatir on Mendy, and warning for Aubagne.
30e Pierre commits a big mistake on Benhattab, yellow card for Castelroussin.
27e With incredible excitement, Berri concedes two corners on which we come close to the third goal for Aubagne…
22e Corner from Tormin, Wandji rises and hits with his head, the ball goes just wide.
19e Berri revolts (a little). If Aubagne remains dangerous on counterattacks, like this blind pass from Khetir to Tafni, the Berrichons settle into the opposing camp. Victim of a foul in the area, Duterte hopes for a penalty, the referee grants him nothing.
10e BUUTTTTTTT Aubagne wanders around in the Berri defense with maddening passivity. Benhattab, elusive, serves a caviar to Nsimba who deceives Konaté with a shot at the near post (0-2). The public shouts its anger.
7e BBBBUUTTTT! As was to be feared, the Berri cracked. Khetir presents himself alone in front of Konaté who bows this time. Catastrophic departure of the Berrichons (0-1)
5e La Berri is completely missing her start. Nsimba's turn to find himself in a good position, Konaté is vigilant.
3e Second blow for the Berri defense. The twirling Benhattab is served by a backheel and hits. Konaté pushes away with her foot.
Kick-off. It’s chilly at the Gaston-Petit stadium (3o C), where the crowds are far from the 13,000 Sochaux spectators. Under the gaze of the president, Benjamin Gufflet, the kick-off is given by Aubagne, very close to surprising the Berry defense from the start.
Pre-match
