The start of the DFCO! – K6FM

While this Sunday could, in the event of a defeat, mark the final sinking of the DFCO and the officialization of the club’s descent into Ligue 2, this day on the contrary marked a burst of pride from the Dijon players.

In place during the first period, with a defense of 5 and against a very dull and harmless Nice team, the Burgundians were able to make the difference during the second period. The light came in the 49th minute of play with a recovery from side-defender Fouad Chafik, well placed in front of the Nice goalkeeper cage, who managed to score a superb goal, his first in Ligue 1! A deliverance for the former player of Laval and Istres, in Dijon for 5 years now.

The DFCO was then able to secure victory in the 77th minute with a goal from Yassine Benzia on a penalty, after a hand fault by a Nice player.

Even if the Dijon club is still last in the Ligue 1 standings (with 18 points), and the descent into Ligue 2 remains inevitable, this victory is good. Listen to the reaction of Dijon coach David Linarès below:
