Jules Koundé and Aurélien Tchouameni both attended the Girondins de Bordeaux training center. For the first time in their life, they will play against each other in a match of the highest level and watched by the whole planet.
Two classic Bordeaux Real Madrid vs FC Barçelon
Because this match is the classic one, the one that inspired this often usurped name since then, Real Madrid FC Barcelona. Two mythical clubs that share the primacy of football in Spain but also in Europe. Bordeaux, Diogo Carolina is a Real Madrid fan and obviously will follow the two former Bordeaux players on Sunday at 4.15pm
We are talking about the most important match, at least in a club, on the world of football. So it will definitely be special. They’re young. You should know that Aurélien Tchouameni was born in 2000, Jules Koundé is two years older, that is 24 years old. Real have spent 100 million for Tchouameni, so they will trust him, Barça is 50 million for Koundé so they will trust him too. Frankly, it is good that two Frenchmen are in what for me are the two greatest clubs in history. So, to see, I hope Tchouameni will beat his colleague, Diogo Carolina
“We try to ignore the time of the match”
This is the Real Madrid fan speaking. The situation that Aurélien Tchouameni and Jules Koundé will live, Grégory Bourillon knew when he played against the one who became his friend: Jimmy Briand. They both trained at the Stade Rennais, came face to face and it’s a strange feeling says Grégory Bourillon.
It’s strange, let’s try to ignore the match time, but plus we were really on the pitch, we confronted each other directly because I was a defender and therefore I had hit the mark. He teases me a bit because he sometimes scored against my teams. So I appear in videos where he scores goals. We do not keep the photos of the tackles but the videos of the goals yes, he is always to his advantage – Grégory Bourillon
Benzema from childhood to the Golden Ball
Grégory Bourillon and Jimmy Briand who created the B-Pro Academy in Bordeaux where they animate football courses for children with passion. Because all the champions were children and a collection edited by Hugo et Cie is interested in the childhood of footballers: all champions! After signing the story ofHugo Lloris, Sandra Kollender wrote the book dedicated to the one who could very well receive the Golden Ball on Monday evening: Karim Benzema.
He comes to football for passion, like so many great champions. I, I know in particular Hugo Lloris and Benzema, who are two very different champions but who share this great passion for football. And Karim Benzema is a kid from a delicate suburb of Lyon who shoots balloons all day until sunset behind his house, on the house wall. Until night falls. Because he loves it. It’s in his blood – Sandra Kollender
It would be the first time since 1998 that a Frenchman would be awarded the Ballon d’Or. 24 years ago, when in Turin he wore the colors of Juventus, Zinedine Zidane obtained the Holy Grail only two years after leaving… the Girondins de Bordeaux.
Your football matches: Sunday 16 October at 12:45 FCGB Women vs OL on Canal +, at 16:15 Real Madrid FC Barcelona on Bein Sports. The next day, the 21st team’s golden ball after Bastia Bordeaux on France Bleu Gironde with Clement Carpentier and Yon Ecenarro.
