It’s a point that can count at the end of the season, and above all, it’s an expected reaction in a match like this. With a header from Moussiti-Oko going over, a cross that was barely too imprecise, and above all a badly shot penalty without any problem for the goalkeeper, the face of the first period bears the mark of incompleteness, despite a certain ease to create danger.
The second period, in which Coutadeur’s teammates came back well, gave birth on the other hand to a good copy. Multiplying the balls in the opposing area, keeping its pace with the entry of Barreto and Alphonse, the Ajaccian offensive animation nevertheless failed in its “realism” mission of the day, even leaving a boulevard behind it on a well-negotiated corner by the Trojan defense. Defender Porozo had no trouble beating Leroy (1-0 in the 75th minute).
Winning coaching and dribbling
On the other hand, the ACA will be recognized for its audacity. First in the coaching of Olivier Pantaloni, who just then trusted Youcef Belaïli, barely qualified after his arrival from Brest, then in the dribbling and impertinent provocations of the latter, ball at his feet.
The Trojan defense did well the first time, but on an incursion from the right side, it abdicated under the face of the millimeter ball touch of the Algerian international. Arriving on the goal line, he passed for the Franco-Moroccan Mounaïm El IDrissy, who scored with a flat foot, after giving of himself throughout the game, and obtained the penalty finally stopped.
An equalizer that blew up substitutes and supporters, who had sat down a little more in their seats after a second goal from Aubois was fortunately disallowed for offside.
With this draw, the ACA takes a point, connects a second meeting without losing, and capitalizes on its successful “coup” in Marseille during the previous match. Eighteenth with eight units on the clock, the bears pass in front of Angers on goal difference and pick up one point from 16th place, before, next Friday, to receive neither more nor less than Paris-St-Germain.
