This will be the occasion for an official reunion between the two coaches, Drouais Gwenaël Maurice and Mainvillois Benoît Devin, former teammates at the FCD with whom they had even played a 7th round of the Coupe de France lost 1-0 against Caen, in 2013. For the anecdote, Maurice even led Devin within the Drouaise reserve. “He was not my assistant, but not far …”

There were not six but seven former international tricolors present, Saturday, at the Marc-Héron stadium for the 50 years of Auneau FC. His coming had not been announced, because uncertain, but Michaël Ciani joined the party well with Bruno Bellone, Marcel Dib, Luc Sonor, William Ayache, Steve Marlet and Daniel Bravo.

More fear than harm for Touré
Unintentionally hit in the head by the shoe of the Chartrain Maxime Fleury, Saturday evening, during a contact, the goalkeeper of Blois Youssouf Touré was forced to go out on a stretcher after a small loss of consciousness. But he recovered quickly enough and, even if he still had a little dizziness, this Monday evening, after being brought home by his president, his health did not seem to be in danger. “I will be resting for two days and I hope to be able to resume training on Tuesday,” he told our colleagues from La Nouvelle République on Sunday. We wish him!

Tribute
A minute of silence was observed this Saturday, October 9 at the Jean-Bruck stadium in Dreux before the Regional 1 FC drouais – Vineuil match. The FCD made a point of honoring the memory of the young woman who died in an accident in Goussainville on the night of October 2 to 3. She had no direct connection to the club, but several members of her family are made redundant there, including a player from the squad on Saturday.
The cooler hit
Jean-Pierre Papin, C’Chartres Football coach, has found a new privileged location to experience his team’s matches. Saturday, during the 3-1 victory against Blois, when he was not standing in his authorized zone along the touchline, the coach was sitting on… a cooler! JPP thus imitated two Marseille coaches, the former Marcelo Bielsa and the current Jorge Sampaoli. This is perhaps what allowed him to keep a cool head to make a change that paid off with the entry to the 58th of Mourad Louzif, scorer two minutes later.
Nephew remains hopeful with Gabon
The Bonnevalais technician Patrice Neveu retains a small chance of qualifying for the 2022 World Cup with “his” selection of Gabon. The Panthers, beaten 3-1 by Angola on Friday, took their revenge by winning 2-0. With this success, the Gabonese move to 3rd place in their group F, 3 points behind the leader, Egypt, who was moving to Libya this evening.
First separate issues
Two Eurelian R2 teams scored their first league goals this weekend. It ended in a 2-0 success for Louillard à Ingré but a new 5-2 setback for Nogent-le-Roi at the Montlouis reserve.
Benjamin Nivet with a hair
The Yévrois Benjamin Nivet played and won, this Saturday, October 9, in La Rabatière (Vendée), a funny gala match between the bald team and the hairy one. Sponsor of the event, the Eurélien, endowed with one of the most famous hairless skulls in French football, opened the scoring and his team won in the penalty shoot-out. The event, set up as part of Vrai Foot Day, brought together 1,300 people in a breathtaking atmosphere. “It’s original, festive, friendly,” said Benjamin Nivet, at RMC Sport.
