The draw against Le Havre left (new) traces on the GF38 side as the quarter-final of the Coupe de France against Olympique Lyonnais is already looming.
Vincent Hognon had spoken of doubts before the meeting against the leader. He explained this Saturday (<< his post-match conf) that he was referring in particular to Matthias Phaëton, hence his presence on the bench at kick-off.
Concerning the match itself, the bad news is of course the injury of Axel Ngando, who only stayed on the lawn of the Stade des Alpes for fourteen minutes. Hit in the calf the former Auxerrois, who had returned from injury a week ago for a few minutes in Caen, could be absent again for long weeks. In any case, this is what his coach feared at half-time.
Victim of thigh pain, Jordan Tell also came out at half-time, but more as a precaution and not to “fry” a replacement session when there had already been a change in the first period. Barring bad news, he should be present at Groupama Stadium on Tuesday.
