After having stocked up on points and confidence at home, Stade Malherbe Caen went to Guingamp this Monday evening with more certainty about its game and the desire to score its first points away. But Stade Malherbe Caen is definitely traveling poorly at the start of the season. The first two trips of the Rouge et Bleu had ended in two disappointments so far: in Pau (1-0) despite a double numerical superiority then in Grenoble (3-1) after having nevertheless opened the score from the start.
For this third meeting away from d’Ornano, SM Caen unfortunately put its opponent in a chair by conceding the opening in the 6th minute of play from a corner. Jacques Siwé headed the ball without being in any way hampered by the weedy defenders. If Caen reacted with a powerful strike from Tidiam Gomis repelled by the opposing goalkeeper (11th), it was the Bretons who were the most dangerous in this first period. It took Traoré’s header (25th) and the base of Mandréa’s post (37th) to prevent Guingamp from doubling the lead. The SMC goalkeeper also had to work twice in quick succession against Labeau to prevent the Bretons from doubling the lead. Lacking aggressiveness, unable to give rhythm to the game offensively, the SMC logically returned to the locker room being down by one goal
