Amiens believed in it until the end and until this 93rd minute on his lawn against Quevilly-Rouen (1-0). Thanks to a cap goal from Mathis Touhou, who lobbed goalkeeper Benjamin Leroy, the ASC scored their first victory of the season.
A great operation for the Picards who dream of going back to Ligue 1 after four years of absence. The road to promotion goes through this kind of performance.
For its part, Caen also made a great start by beating Paris FC at the Charléty stadium. Thanks to his formidable striker Alexandre Mendy and his Moroccan international Ali Abdi, the Normans did the job (0-2) and offered themselves the first part of the table.
A first part shared with Auxerre, leader after this first day of Ligue 2 while obviously awaiting the result of Pau-Bordeaux (Monday 8:45 p.m.). The Burgundians, who are returning to Ligue 2 after a season in the top flight, corrected the poor Valenciennes team (1-4) at the Hainault stadium.
The young Ousmane Camara (21 years old) offered himself a double just like Gauthier Hein, courted by Metz. It could be his last strides with AJA before leaving for the Garnets.
Beautiful demonstration of force also signed Guingamp. The Bretons took advantage of FC Annecy’s lack of rhythm to overthrow the game after the break. Led following Alexy Bosetti’s opener from the penalty spotthe EAG has shown itself four times in a Sports Park behind closed doors. Final score 4-1 and a tricky start to the championship for the Hauts-Savoyards who were still very happy to find themselves playing this match in place of Sochaux, relegated to the lower division.
In the other meetings, Ajaccio had a hard time digesting their descent by conceding a disappointing draw against Rodez (1-1), Concarneau offered themselves a very nice baptism of fire in the professional world by obtaining the point of parity against Bastia ( 0-0), Dunkirk and Troyes also shared points (2-2) and Laval plunged Angers into doubts. The Mayenne inflicted a first defeat this season on an SCO not returned to the antechamber since 2014.
Let’s not forget the defeat of AS Saint-Etienne earlier in the day against Grenoble. The Greens begin in the worst way an exercise where they aspire loud and clear to the rise.
