so far so close
On Saturday night, however, they took the game in the right direction. We needed a reaction after the first half in the derby lost against Bayonne. From the beginning, therefore, the Genêts put their game in order and tried to move the Poitevin wall. By limiting the touches of the ball per player, Anglet put his opponent, a wait-and-see, under the fire extinguisher. Favre could have opened the scoring with a magnificent uncrossed header that put Mensah out of reach but unfortunately the visiting keeper was saved on the line by Kibundu (15th). He could have done it too Dos Santos but his shot, at the end of a nice move to the right, was blocked at the last moment (17th).
The Genêts pushed the undefeated leader who was not dangerous at all. The Angloys continued their momentum but Lapeyre missed his duel, alone against Mensah, after a mistake by Enza Yamissi (28th). Dudoit’s Poitevins bent down for almost half an hour then in two minutes the leader of N3 was very close to the opening of the scoring. But the Angloye defense, articulated around Mendiburu, saved the homeland on its line (35a).
Reassuring content
The beginning of the second act sounded like the first. One night the conquering broom mistreated her guests and ended up knocking them to the ground. After a mistake by Haure at the far post (58 °), Lapeyre, thrown deep on the left after the ball has risen 70 meters, takes the privileged position in the area and plays the shot with skill, pushed in the back by Amiens . Dos Santos takes charge of the sentence and scores from the spot (60th, 1-0). Lapeyre was therefore very close to doubling his bet on a quick free kick, but his shot from him did not surprise Mensah (63rd).
Poitevin’s reaction was immediate. Baude overtook everyone on the left before making a comeback for Koutob as soon as he entered the game (67th, 1-1). Everything had to be redone for the Genêts. The end of the match was then a bit more complicated, Poitiers just missed the break of the century on a pressure from Koutob that countered Lesec’s relaunch. He passed right next to it (85 °)! It would have been unfair to Anglet as much effort had been made to resist the leader.
