In the absence of success at the end of their D2 accession play-off match, the Lattoises will have had a great trip. Montpellier – Paris by train then Paris – Caen by car. Saturday evening, the Lattoises slept in the suburbs of Caen.
Sunday, it is in Venoix, the former stadium of SM Caen, largely filled with Norman supporters, which welcomes the players of Hugues, Stéphane and Éric. The first half is dominated by the Caennaises but their most frank chances are repelled by the Lattoise goalkeeper Aurélie Techer. Nevertheless, the visitors will be punished twice in stoppage time (45 + 1 ‘and 45 + 2’). After a necessary remobilization in the locker room during the break, the Héraultaises returned to the field better organized against the Caennaises who used the ball across the width of the field. Despite clean play and clear chances, the Lattoises failed to come back to score without conceding a goal. At the final whistle, the Venoix stadium heaves a sigh of relief. 2-0, favorable score for the local team before the trip to Lattes.
A suitable result for the Blood and Gold players who remain in the race for qualification.
