After the victory of Nîmes (2-1) in Lille on Sunday late afternoon, the red zone got a little closer for ASSE, swept away by AS Monaco (0-4) on Friday. The Greens, 16th, are four lengths from FC Lorient (17th) and Crocos (18th), five from FC Nantes (19th). In two weeks, they will be going to Costières for a fear match. If the Gardois win, they will come back to a point… For this part, Claude Puel could be deprived of a major player, even if he is going through a difficult season: Denis Bouanga.
Two matches with Gabon
Indeed, the Gabonese striker has been authorized by the club to go to Gabon in order to honor his duty as an international. We remember that, at first, the L1 and L2 clubs had jointly decided to retain their non-European internationals, so that they would not be subjected to a week of confinement upon their return to the Old Continent and were missing. thus the 31st day. But after negotiations, the government agreed to lift this obligation to observe a week of confinement and Africans, for example, can go to play in the CAN qualifiers.
AS Saint-Etienne announced last night that Denis Bouanga would leave Forez on Monday to play two matches with his country, “against DR Congo next Thursday before facing Angola in Luanda on Monday March 29” , announces the Greens press release. If it is only fair that the African internationals can defend the colors of their nation like the Europeans, does ASSE not risk biting its fingers for letting its player go if he returns with the Covid-19? Because in case of positive test, it is fifteen days of competition that he will miss!
