Lens wins at Angers but can thank Petkovic and the sun

The artesians have never been able to make a difference collectively in this match. They also conceded a fairly logical opener in the 49th minute on a magnificent left-footed strike from former Valencian Angelo Fulgini. Impossible then to imagine them winning in a match where the sun will finally become the major player in the match.

The fact of the match: Petkovic bothered by the sun twice

In the 73rd minute, the meeting indeed took an unexpected turn: On a cross from Clauss, Petkovic, the Angevin goalkeeper misjudged the trajectory of the ball which bounced off his foot in front of his goal. His teammate Ebosse wants to clear but his shot is blocked by Mendy who scores against his camp. 3 minutes later, the Lensois right piston puts the cover back. This time, Petkovic will miss his dive and let himself be lobbed by the ball.

Man of the Match: Jonathan Clauss

the Lensois defender will have been the best man of this disputed meeting on the lawn of the Raymond Kopa stadium. Jonathan Clauss regained great physical activity in his lane without losing this technical accuracy which allowed him to put Petkovic in difficulty twice in the last 20 minutes. The former Bielefeld player seems to have digested this period when he put a lot of pressure on himself. A period during which many observers saw him knocking on the door of the French team.

Match number: 3

Like the number of points which separate, after this 26th day, Lens from 5th place. The European objective becomes possible again. But the Lensois players refuse to project themselves so far. They prefer to think of the next 3 matches before the international break: Against Brest, in Metz and in front of Clermont. After these meetings it will then be time to rethink the end-of-season objectives.
