DFCO-AJA is the shock poster of this 16th day in League 2 scheduled for Monday, November 22, 2021. The two Burgundy clubs have not met since 2016. The supporters have already started to roam on social networks!

It is a match already noted in the agenda of football fans for a long time. Dijon Football Côte-d’Or welcomes the Auxerre club on Monday, November 22, 2021 at 8:45 p.m. at the Stade Gaston-Gérard. This is the first time in five years that these two clubs have played in the same championship. Obviously, this awakens old rivalries between supporters, especially on social networks.

In a tweet dated Monday, November 15, Baptiste D., DFCO supporter published a post in which we see a man screaming very loudly.

“It’s rooming. I have nothing against the city of Auxerre but it’s important to maintain this derby. We are not lucky to have a derby like Lyon and Saint-Etienne. is a pity. “explains Baptiste D who published the tweet under the @Highlanderrinho account.

This DFCO supporter responded to a tweet from the “Abbé Dédé” account managed by AJA supporters where a man exclaims with this sentence: “Wow, what is this thing?”This is an allusion to the poor results of the Dijon club last year and at the start of the season.

This tweet refers to the poor results the DFCO experienced last season as well as this year.

This series of tweet was launched by Maxime Grégoire, another Dijon supporter and manager of the Le Dijon Show account.

With his tweet, Maxime wanted to give enthusiasm to this 100% Burgundian meeting “We try to maintain a rivalry anyway because it is important to have one in football”. The 23-year-old fan even has a message to his opponents. “It’s a cordial understanding, it’s a little picnic, a little bit of humor. We expect the same from their sides. If the Auxerrois want to annoy us and play us a little joke, we will take it with pleasure on the point of humor “ .

More nuanced reactions from the AJA side

In Auxerre, even if some supporters respond in a tone of humor, this is not the case for others do not react in the same way. “Me that leaves me indifferent and it is on the ground that it must be played” explains Guylaine Baloup-Berry, Auxerre supporter. “I don’t even watch these tweets. I put nothing because it’s a fight between supporters to stir up hatred” Guylaine adds.

Mathieu Delahousse is also a supporter of AJA. He has no particular excitement about this meeting. “It’s a match like any other. It’s like going to Lyon or Clermont-Ferrand. We have no opinion on these tweets and we are kindly awaiting Monday’s game “.
