Facing the red lantern, Le Mans FC wants to continue its comeback

Le Mans FC is launched in an operation “remontada”. After beating the leader Laval, then the second Concarneau, the blood-and-gold footballers will try to chain this Friday, March 11, 2022 against Boulogne-sur-Mer, on behalf of the 25th day of national. On paper, it will be much easier than previous encounters. The Northerners are last in the standings and they haven’t won for 17 games. Their last victory dates back to September 10. An eternity.

But Cris, the coach of Le Mans FC, wants avoid the trap of overconfidence. “We have the example of Bastia-Borgo. When we went to Corsica, they were red lantern and had not yet won and they beat us. So you have to be careful. We have an opportunity to play the table and go grab third place, we have to seize it. Today it depends only on us“.

Le Mans FC is getting closer to the podium

The Manceaux are only four points from the podium. And the last two successes against the top two in the standings have reassured the sang-et-or of their ability to compete with the best and to be able to move up to league 2.”We have seen the results. We saw all the matches we played in 2022. From the moment we played together, we made the difference. We must continue this series“.

This return to form for the Sarthois corresponds to the arrival of striker Armand Gnanduillet, author of three goals, which gives a more conquering face to Le Mans FC. “I do not like losing. I am a bad loser. You have to play matches until the last second of added time. You have to give your all, roll on the ground, tear yourself away when you lose the ball, have the “dirty side”. I have experienced four promotions in three different countries. And I would like to live one in France with the guys“. There are ten games left at Le Mans FC to achieve this.

Le Mans FC – Boulogne, kick-off at 7 p.m. at the MMArena.
