Summary of the meeting
The first half offers a match of moderate intensity. Both teams struggle to create chances. It was at the half-hour mark that the visitors hit the post following a well-taken header from a corner. This is the only real opportunity in this first act. The Greens have a monopoly and try to hinder this team but the last pass often misses. Several Makhloufi or Agesilas centers did not find a buyer. The Saint-Etienne attack clearly lacks weight in this first act. Israel Kinunga will come out injured during this first act, replaced by Marwann Nzuzi.
-Arriving with different intentions in the second half, Mehdy Lutin has made significant differences since his arrival. He hits and passes regularly but his shots or crosses never hit the mark. While he is the number 1 danger, on a deep ball from Othman where he goes on goal, he injures the back of the thigh and is forced to come out. Nadir El Jamali had the match point at the very end of the match but his shot was saved at the last minute by the visitors’ defender. 0-0 is the final score of this meeting, poor in clear chances!
Next week, the reserve will face Chamalières, a remaining competitor, for the last day of the first leg. A match which will be played away and which will be played on Saturday at 7 p.m.
