Large winners of Ris-Orangis last season (0-15), the Diables de Rethel were less at ease this Saturday, October 26, 2024, for their return to Essonne.
Despite a clear success in the end (2-6), the delivery was difficult as Luca Schneider explained shortly after the meeting: “Our first period was disastrous. The coach told us and we saw it for ourselves. Already, we weren’t in the match with a lot of bad passes and, what’s more, we struggled against their defense and their excellent goalkeeper. »
Rethel finally found the flaw
Dominant, Rethel ended up finding the fault on his third attempt on a long shot from Buchman (0-1, 14th). A short-lived advantage, since the locals quickly laid siege to Tribino’s cage to equalize through Levillain on the right side (1-1, 16th). Returning from the locker room, Ris-Orangis saw his determination quickly rewarded.
In a rapid attack, Cheshir took advantage of a mix-up to score from close range (2-1, 27th). Stung, the Ardennes reversed the trend in less than two minutes thanks to Jakob Novak, then Petr Skoloud (2-3, 34th). Rethel got their hands on the match five minutes later, when an untenable Lavrisa sent a missile under the Ile-de-France bar (2-4, 41st).
The score is finally logical
Luca Schneider’s partners widened the gap a little further in the final minutes to win with a logical score, but still a little flattering (2-6). “Flattering, I wouldn’t say that,” continued Luca Schneider. “We put our game in place and the second half was simply much better. »
