Amandine Pierre-Louis’ AS Saint-Étienne was away at the Stade Louis Blériot to face the Reims team this Saturday. For this first day in Arkema Première Ligue, the Haitian player put her name on the scorers’ table to guide Les Vertes to a great 2-1 victory.
During the match between Olympique Lyonnais and Fleury 91 yesterday Friday, we were able to see Melchie Dumornay and Batcheba Louis at work at the start of the season. This Saturday, other Grenadières also had the opportunity to start the new campaign with their respective clubs. Against Stade de Reims, Amandine Pierre-Louis was lined up in a more offensive position than usual.
The choice paid off as the Haitian defender opened the scoring for Saint-Étienne (20th). Two minutes later, Lisa Viviane Douarche doubled the lead for Les Vertes. At the end of the first half, Jade Nassi reduced the score for the Rémoises. The two teams went into the locker room with this one-goal gap in favor of the Stéphanoises (2-1).
In the second half no goals were scored. Amandine Pierre-Louis and her teammates emerged victorious and are now second in the Arkema Premier League behind Olympique Lyonnais. Stade de Reims is tenth.
