Montgivray – Diors
match stopped at half-time
The derby did not come to an end. Indeed, when the first period had just ended, the La Châtre firefighters were called to help a spectator suffering from a heart problem. They had to call the Samu who intervened with the helicopter. The machine landed on the lawn of the Maurice-Bijotat stadium and first aid was provided to the patient who was conscious. The latter is the father of a player on the Montgivray team. It was not until 5 p.m. that the transfer to the hospital center could be carried out.
After an interruption of more than an hour, the meeting did not resume. “The time limit in this type of situation is 45 minutes, the match will therefore be replayed”specified Jean-Louis Guilbaud, who officiated as a delegate.
As for the 45 minutes of actual play, neither team managed to gain the upper hand. On a difficult lawn that the town hall services had not been able to mow, the visitors were the first to prove dangerous, the local goalkeeper Thibaud being forced to intervene on a strike from Compin (4e). The best opportunities, however, will be for Fabrice Cholier's players with a strike from Bernard (30e) and a raid by Taillardat which ended in a corner (33e).
