Zapping But! Football Club ASSE – Bordeaux: The pre-match brief
Despite Khazri and Nadé, Sainté breaks a 33-year-old record
Unable to win for twelve matches in official competition, ASSE has as against Lyon snatched an unexpected draw thanks to Mickaël Nadé. Sainté is on his worst run since 1988. Facing Angers, the Greens still have the situations but were penalized with a goal on the visitors’ first opportunity (Traoré’s header on a marking error) and gave in on a counter (finishing by Angelo Fulgini). Faced with Bernardoni’s goals, we saw free kicks from Ryad Boudebouz flee the frame, controls by Jean-Philippe Krasso lacking conviction and it was still necessary that the local idol Wahbi Khazri put out a kick to maintain the hope and that Mickaël Nadé does not tear himself away in extra time to go up two goals but at the accounting level the operation is clearly not good.
Claude Puel, it’s over (normally)
“Puel: we give you 24 hours to resign”. The Ultras’ message was quite clear yesterday at Etrat and they joined deeds to words this Friday night against the SCO by causing the match to be interrupted for an hour. If it was necessary to finish convincing the Loire management that, whatever the result, it was necessary to change coach whatever the cost, the actions of the supporters have probably ended the reflection. No, Claude Puel was not let go by his players, who fought and gave everything, but he was by the green people. In Lyon or Nice, it may be possible to stand alone in the face of adversity. Not in Sainté, where passion to excess rhymes with “danger”. We saw it a few years ago when the Saint-Etienne supporters had succeeded in blocking the transfer yet signed by Anthony Mounier.
A stroke of blood from the Ultras that will make people talk
Delayed one hour because disturbed by the cracking of Ultras and smoke that burned the nets, the ASSE – Angers meeting is already promised to a file under investigation by the Disciplinary Commission. At a time when the authorities are particularly on edge, it is hard to imagine that this new incident does not fall through the cracks. In these cases, the procedure is as follows. The LFP will pronounce a closure of one or more stands (see the entire stadium!) As a precaution and await the judgment of the case, probably in three weeks, to decide. Given the precedents in Nice – OM, Lens – Lille or Angers – OM, it is hard to imagine a withdrawal of points other than with a suspended sentence but for the rest …

Absent managers, an irrelevant coach and a long-awaited first success in L1 …

ASSE – Angers (2-2), a draw that should not be enough
Despite a lot of goodwill, ASSE failed to beat SCO Angers. The Greens have recovered two goals but not sure that this is enough. In a complicated atmosphere, we undoubtedly witnessed the end of the Puel era.
