And the least we can say is that the Héraultais will not present themselves in the best conditions in Artois. This is because of LOSC. Indeed, against the Dogues (2-2) last Sunday, the Héraultais experienced a stormy end to the match during which their attacker Tanguy Coulibaly notably cleared the ball into Bruno Genesio, who ran after him to take revenge! The MHSC coach, Jean-Louis Gasset, was also expelled because he was unable to control his nerves.
One match for Gasset, two for Coulibaly
Both were sanctioned by the disciplinary committee on Wednesday. Jean-Louis Gasset, however, presented his apologies immediately after the match and reiterated them to the LFP body. She took this into account but still imposed a one-match suspension on him. Gasset will therefore be in the Bollaert stands on Sunday and will let his assistant, Ghislain Printant, manage his team from the edge of the field.
