[Billet] And yes, even the evil eye falls on the MHSC which is heading straight towards Ligue 2…

It is a bitter observation shared by many supporters who see Montpellier sinking slowly but surely. This match against Le Havre, a duel between the bottom of the class, seemed to be an unexpected opportunity to finally score points and, who knows, restart a positive dynamic.

Usually, Pailladins are self-sufficient in scuttling themselves. This time, bad luck intervened and struck. Falaye Sacko, a player already singled out for his insufficient performances, caused Le Havre's decisive penalty with an unfortunate handball. This detail, symbolic of a season which is collapsing, further accentuates a feeling of helplessness. On a delivery from Jordan Ayew, the Malian right-back, with his back to his direct opponent, obviously could not avoid this mistake which even the Ghanaian did not seem to have calculated. If the arrival of Jean-Louis Gasset should have brought about a new lease of life, everything suggests that nothing will be able to change the destiny of the MHSC for its 50th anniversary.

We could even say that the dice are loaded this season. Errors, unfortunate actions, a cascade of injuries… Everything seems to be going down sportingly against Montpellier, as if the club no longer had the slightest room for maneuver. Each week brings its share of disappointments and frustrations, leaving supporters in bitterness, because the sequel seems inevitable: a descent into Ligue 2, which is becoming more and more palpable.

Beyond this match, the entire club seems to be losing its bearings, with a team that cannot get back on its feet, questionable strategic choices too, and a crisis of confidence that is only growing. . It is painful to see a club with such recent history lose its footing in this way. We hope that fate will eventually turn around, but today, it is difficult to remain optimistic.
