By winning in style (1-2), the DFCO inflicted its first defeat on Concarneau at home, put an end to 7 years of Breton “curse”, and above all carried out a superb operation in the ranking by seizing the 4th place!
With this long journey of 800 kilometers to digest, we could wonder if our players were going to have good legs in Finistère. The answer will be clear: yes! Baptiste Ridira's men will indeed have a high quality first half. From the 4th minute, Alexandre Parsemain is very close to taking a cross from Jovany Ikanga at the near post. Dominant in controlling the ball and more enterprising, the DFCO clearly took the match in hand. Zoran Moco cannot convert a cross from Cédric Makutungu (14th) into a goal, while Jordan Marié lacks precision, in a good position, on a cross from Alexandre Parsemain (19th). The biggest opportunity for Dijon will be for Jovany Ikanga. Taking advantage of a slip from Seydi, the striker on loan from Red Star will unfortunately miss his face-to-face, not targeting his shot in the area (27th). Elydjah Mendy could also have broken the deadlock, but his shot was blocked (32nd). A pleasant, but frustrating first period for Dijon.
Quickly, this frustration will ease with the opening score signed by Zoran Moco! On an off-center free kick, Hugo Vargas-Rios places the ball on the head of the Guadeloupean who deceives Philippon from close range (0-1, 50e) ! Short-lived joy with the Breton equalizer, again from a set piece… A corner from Sy is converted with a header by Sery, too alone in the area (1-1, 58e). This same Sery will still bring danger to the Dijon cage in the aerial domain (63rd), but the match will change thanks to the left paw of a certain Hugo Vargas-Rios. Elected Dijon of the month for October, the Franco-Argentinian midfielder will attend the National Top Goals! Not attacked at 35 meters, he unleashes a magnificent strike with his left foot which will lodge under the crossbar of a totally helpless Phlippon (1-2, 67e).
A real gem that puts the DFCO on the right track. But Concarneau, pushed by his audience, has not said his last word. Samoura uncrosses his shot too much (77th), Mouazan shoots over it (78th), then Séry thinks to deceive Paul Delecroix for the equalizer, but that was without counting on the save from Quentin Bernard, who tackles the ball at the last minute (79th). ). A defensive move worth a goal! The Dijon collective will continue to defend with self-sacrifice to maintain this advantage.
Author of one of its most successful matches this season, the DFCO inflicted a first defeat at home in Concarneau and did not return empty from its long journey to Finistère. The Reds put an end to a drought of more than 7 years on Breton soil and climbed to fourth place in the standings, just three lengths from the leader's chair.
