Niort: Michel played with a serious injury

A hell of a mind. On the occasion of the victory over Toulouse (1-0), Saturday in Ligue 2, Mathieu Michel (29) played with a big handicap. Indeed, the Niort goalkeeper fell back badly after an aerial intervention 20 minutes from the end of the meeting. Despite the pain, the goalkeeper of the Chamois remained on the ground. After passing exams, the last stronghold of Niort learned that he was suffering from a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee.

“I gritted my teeth until the end in this important game for the club. But the verdict is in, the cruciate ligaments are ruptured. Despite the disappointment, I know that I will be back in a few months even stronger today. Thank you all for your messages, “Michel said on Twitter.
