This is a match not to be lost. This Saturday, Red Star welcomes Grenoble in this meeting between poorly ranked players, counting for the 16th day of Ligue 2. Both teams are encountering difficulties this season. The locals have not won in the championship since November 1, against Martigues (0-1). But their opponent of the day, Grenoble, is not in great shape either. The last victory of the Isérois in the championship dates back to October 18, against Metz (2-0). These are therefore two teams who need points to quickly move away from the relegation zone.
Red Star finds form
At home, Grégory Poirier's players feel liberated, pushed by their audience, and it pays off. From the 10th minute of play, striker Hacene Benali opened the scoring for Red Star and scored his 3rd goal of the season. With only one shot on target for Grenoble, the locals accelerated, appeared more dangerous and quickly took cover with a second goal scored in the 16th minute by Kemo Cissé, who scored his first goal of the season. In this first act totally dominated by the Red Star, the Grenoblois will break down again before the break, in the 36th minute. Frenchman Joachim Eickmayer brings the score to (3-0). A first period perfectly mastered by the Red Star players. Grenoble will have to react in the second half to try to come back to the score.
