Saint-Pryvé/Saint-Hilaire offered good resistance, but a double from Yanis Merdji in the last half hour of play allowed the Girondins de Bordeaux to win in front of 10,000 spectators at Matmut Atlantique.
Saint-Pryvé/Saint-Hilaire logically lost against the Girondins de Bordeaux, this Saturday, November 9. In a fiery atmosphere for a National 2 match at Matmut Atlantique, packed with more than 10,000 spectators, Mathieu Pousse’s team matched its opponent before giving in in the second half.
premium Sonny Degert, the most Bordeaux of the Pryvatains
When it’s not Andy Carroll, the English international, author of the last five Bordeaux goals, it’s Yanis Merdji who is the “Mr. plus” of the Girondins.
In full skylight
Returning at the break, after a balanced first period with a big chance on each side (Mario Fortunato for Saint-Pryvé, 28th; Yassine Bahassa for Bordeaux, 38th), the former player of AJ Auxerre and Châteauroux made the difference on its own.
He opened the scoring, from close range, with an offering… from Andy Carroll, shortly after the hour mark (64th), and scored twice with a splendid shot into the top corner (77th).
Always second
The Pryvatains were then unable to make up the deficit despite a missed opportunity by Degert (82nd), the Girondins hitting the bar twice at the end of the match by Andy Carroll (85th) and Famady Diaby (88th).
Despite this defeat, Saint-Pryvé/Saint-Hilaire remains in second place in Group B of National 2, four points behind Saint-Malo, the leader.
P. Bye.
