In this duel between two formations arranged in 3-5-2, it is the visitors who entered the game a little better. Slightly hooked by Eickmayer after a nice breakthrough in the area, the right piston Alexandre Gameiro even benefited from a penalty in the 9th minute. In charge of the exercise, Vincent Créhin had the opportunity to put his team on the right track but saw his cross attempt brilliantly rejected by Maisonnial, who started on the right side. In the minutes that followed, the balance of power was completely reversed and the scenario turned into a nightmare for the Choletais. Quarshie, first, cheated on Kocik at close range (19th) following a great collective action before the Joachim Eickamayer show begins.
The two Eickmayer pralines!
Foul on the penalty conceded at the start of the game, the sentry from Bresse, present at the recovery and comfortable in holding the ball, would completely forget his first thoughtlessness. Found twice full axis 25 meters from the opposing goal, the former Camblysian majestically found the skylight of Kocik (29th) then the small net on the other side after a tense shot (38th). The spectators present at Marcel Verchère did not ask for so much. Bombarded but not yet KO, the SOC keeper avoided disaster two minutes later by countering Agounon very close to scoring (40th).
Aware that the task to come back was shaping up to be the most difficult, Richard Déziré made a triple change at the hour mark (Mattoir, Fortuné, Robin for Jarju, Ruffaut and Renaud) while returning to four behind. Following a nice one-two, Le Méhauté had a good opportunity to reduce the gap but the number 10 stumbled on Maisonnial (67th), still imperial to protect his near post in front of Sidibé (79th).
An end in apotheosis for the Burgians
Because it was decidedly not the evening of Cholet, Bourg-en-Bresse crowned his victory with a school action. Starting from their surface, the Blues gradually climbed the field when Benjamin Corgnet threw Fleurier in the depth, the latter centering in first intention for Garita who only had to adjust poor Kocik, beaten for the fourth time in the evening (87th). Alain Pochat could rejoice: the three players at the conclusion of the last goal were all substitutes at kick-off, a sign of the competitiveness of a group which has just sent a serious signal to the 17 other National teams.
