Admittedly, the Rémois did not win. But a few days of rest will be well deserved. Because in Montpellier, the Rémois spared no effort. Too often in a clumsy and messy way. And yet, Marshall Munetsi, freshly entered the game, thought to offer a second victory in a row to his family, when he emerged from a furious tackle at the end of the match to push into the net a ball offered by Mitchell Van Bergen. It was without counting the pride of Montpellier. With two minutes left to play, Yevhann Diouf repelled a distant cross badly. A ball that returned to the young Sacha Delaye who, with a good recovery, equalized.
It’s hard to blame the Reims goalkeeper, who until then had been heroic, saving his team several times with high-class saves. Jonas Omlin, his Hérault counterpart was not left out. From the first minute, the Montpellier porter repelled an attempt to Junya Ito. He will also intervene spectacularly in the second half in front of the young Ibrahim Diakite, rather promising on his right side for his first tenure. And that the goalkeeper seems beaten, it is the crossbar which pushed back the head ofEmmanuel Agbadou.
So many clear chances which should not make disappear the many inaccuracies, on both sides, which littered an irregular part. But failing to be in a great day, the Rémois remained serious, solid defensively, sometimes with success. Without Folarin Balogunentered after the hour mark, Noah Holm weighed on the defence. Undermining work that almost paid off. No matter, with this new draw, the 8th in 15 games, Stade de Reims has a 7th match without defeat. Enough to bring him to 11th place when approaching the long truce caused by the World Cup in Qatar. The opportunity for a little rest before returning to work, in particular with an internship in Spain, and a next match on December 28 or 29.
