Still deprived of Boreux and Piret, injured, the Grand-Leeziens, who welcomed the return of Cinier from suspension, emerged in the face of Fagnards deprived of Ferreira, suspended, and Lecomte and Lopez-Manzano, injured.
Under the eyes of Gabor Bukran, Houlot overtook the visited defense (0-1). Francotte equalized with a “little gem”: chest control and acrobatic return (1-1).
Trailing 1-2 on a goal from Broutin, receiving a corner, the Grand-Leeziens took advantage of their numerical superiority in a tense end to the match (disagreeing with the referee’s decision to award a penalty to Grand-Leez, some Fagnards, including Sirat, left the field for a few tens of seconds) to maintain the lead in the ranking.
“We pulled ourselves away. Every week, we hear the teams announce our first defeat. Since the start of the season, we have rediscovered the DNA and the grinta that characterize Grand-Leez”smiled the double visited scorer, Malcome Francotte.
“It’s getting tiring. We are punished every weekend. The referees penalize us all the time. I’m going to have to motivate the players again”railed the Fagnard captain, Matthieu Houlot.
