During the international break, some Ligue 1 clubs play friendly matches to keep pace and build confidence. This was the case of Racing Club de Strasbourg and Stade de Reims, opposed this Thursday to Karlsruhe and FC Swift Hespérange.
Facing the 14th in the German Second Division Championship, the Alsatians, deprived in particular of Matz Sels (Belgium) and Habib Diarra (Espoirs), both with their selection, conceded 3 goals and were not able to score ( 0-3).
Aligning his team in 4-3-3, Patrick Vieira gave confidence to certain young people in his starting XI: goalkeeper Gabin Sabathié, not exempt from all criticism on the last two goals conceded, striker Jérémy Sebas and midfielder Abdoul Ouattara.
Despite the tenure of executives like Kévin Gameiro, Lucas Perrin, Frédéric Guilbert and Ismaël Doukouré, Strasbourg is not reassured, before moving onto the lawn of the Parc des Princes, to challenge Paris Saint-Germain, on Saturday October 21 (17 hours).
Stade de Reims came from behind to draw against FC Swift Hesperange, third in the Luxembourg First Division. Trailing 2-0 after 40 minutes of play, the Champenois regained the score thanks to Amine Salama and Adama Bojang, two summer recruits. Will Still’s men will go to Toulouse on Sunday October 22 (3 p.m.), for the 9th day of Ligue 1.
Finally, Le Havre easily beat QRM (4-0), relegated to Ligue 2, thanks in particular to a double from rookie Emmanuel Sabbi.
