Currently 5th in Pool C of N2, five lengths behind the leader and neighbor of Rhône GOAL FC, the Plateau club knows that it can create a surprise in the face of a Saint-Etienne team in full doubt since the start of the season. Sonny Anderson, adviser to the president immediately motivated his troops after the draw: “It’s a derby. They will come to Lyon and I think that by then the whole city will be Duchéroise. I have already had the opportunity to face teams playing at lower levels in this competition and “I was beaten by National or National 2 teams because we were less motivated. The difference will be in motivation. When Ligue 1 players face N2, they think they will pass easily. There, the classification of Saint-Etienne is not good, and we are in a positive spiral. This can work in our favor Come and encourage us to help us beat the Stéphanois.”
