Bourges FC : 3
Blois Foot 41: 1
Two weeks after a first setback in National 2 against Dinan-Léhon (0-1), BF41 fell again this Friday evening.
In the Jacques-Rimbault stadium, home of Bourges FC, a club of which Senegalese international Sadio Mané (Cristiano Ronaldo’s teammate at Al-Nassr and ex-Liverpool player) became the majority shareholder last March, Cédric’s men Hengbart were caught by the throat during the first quarter of an hour and never managed to get up, delivering their worst performance of the season.
“We got eaten in the duels”
The technician had however warned that it was going to be necessary to put up a big physical fight against a very athletic formation. But the Blésois showed themselves to be very feverish, particularly in defense, and were thus showered by Berruyers fans of regular harassment. “I said it was going to be complicated if we took the first goal, whispered the coach at the end of the game. But that’s what happened…”
Excellent on the SO Romorantin attack front during the first part of last season, Guillaume Yenoussi recalled the good memories of Loir-et-Cher by wrong-footing Léopold Maitre with a header after a perfect cross to the second post (1-0, 5e). Then Ervin Taha, after a very bad loss of the ball from Daysan Ben Nasr in the midfield, doubled the lead by immediately erasing his opposite number before lighting up (2-0, 17e). And the score could even have been heavier if the Blésois goalkeeper and captain had not made a classy save on a point-blank shot following a set piece (33e).
“We got eaten up in the duels and we paid because we weren’t on the mark on the first and we stupidly lost the full ball on the secondthe tactician further analyzed. So yes, we had possession of the ball afterwards. But it was a sterile domination. Because there were necessarily fewer spaces to exploit. »
“It’s up to us to quickly remobilize! »
Literally absent from the debates in the first period, the Reds showed some inclinations in the second act, driven in particular by the returnees, but never managed to reverse the situation. It was even Bourges FC, proceeding on the counter, which was not far from increasing the score (62e et 78e) before definitively folding the game with Soumaré (3-0, 88e).
“It opened up a little in the middle of the second half but we didn’t manage to create many chances: I’m not happy with my offensivescontinued Cédric Hengbart. We didn’t do enough running, we didn’t put our combined play in place enough…”
Despite the reduction in the anecdotal score by Chapelle (3-1, 89e), it is therefore a second defeat in a row which allows the evening’s opponents to come back to level (12 points). While the coach wanted his team to stay on the lookout for the top of the table, this second setback since the start of the season stagnates the young BF41 group, which will return to Coupe de France mode with the reception of Vierzon next Sunday for the 6e tour, a week before the clash at home against the Girondins de Bordeaux. In order to forget this bad month of October in the championship. “It’s a complicated month because you have to switch from one competition to anotherconcluded Cédric Hengbart. But that’s not an excuse: it’s up to us to quickly remobilize! »
