Three consecutive defeats, it’s been four years since that happened at Stade Lavallois. Suddenly, the discourse of the players and the staff is: “the bleeding must be stopped“. At the start of the season, the Mayenne team surfed on the dynamics of last season, explains the coach Olivier Frapolli : “it is logical that we throw ourselves into the battle, a little naively even if the word is strong. But there is this freshness and this desire, each time, to score, to win. Except that we realize that there are important moments in a match where you have to be a little more pragmatic. I think that on this, we still have efforts to make and progress to make.“
A slump for Tango footballers. The hard life of being promoted to the next level. But against Pau, last in Ligue 2, the team wants to bounce back assures the defender Remy Duterte : “we know we’re on a bad streak and we can’t wait to win this first home game against a team that is a direct opponent for maintenance. We are affected by this situation, it is normal. We didn’t experience that last season. I am in a hurry to play this match against Pau and to win the victory.“
Like last week in Sochaux, Olivier Frapolli could well reserve some surprises in his team composition.
With Gonçalves, Cros and Mouali
Apart from the third goalkeeper Théo Châtelain, coach Olivier Frapolli called on all available players. Including defender Hamza Mouali who was supposed to be a little tight to be in this group. We also note the presence for the first time of the central defender, Pierrick Cros. But a player from the list below will not appear on the match sheet.
The kick off of the Stade Lavallois / Pau FC match is scheduled for 7 p.m. at the Francis Le Basser stadium. Football evening from 6:30 p.m. on France Bleu Mayenne with the program presented by Franck Gauteur. Gildas Menguy and our consultant Ulrich Le Pen will bring you this encounter.
