He will end up believing that the SM Caen is cursed. Since the start of his coaching career, never Stephane Moulin had faced so many headwinds in a season. It is not this incredible day with an unlikely scenario punctuated by a cruel defeat that will make him change his mind.
S. Mill: “Honestly, I’m not used to scrolling, but hey… We left at 8:45 a.m. this morning, we arrived at 7:10 p.m. to play at 8 p.m. It’s only us that it happens. We lose a player injured after five minutes, then we get a red card and then we take a goal in the 95th minute. I think the cup is full for tonight. There was already not much room left for the I thought after each match that I had seen everything and we manage to overcome that each time. It’s not easy to live with, not easy to accept. Hanging on is the best thing to do. To do.
At Sochaux, Caen had a two-goal lead at the break, thanks to Da Costa and Deminguet. But on returning from the locker room, the Malherbistes failed to contain the fury of the Cubs, who quickly returned to the scoreboard by Kalulu and Virginius. Reduced to ten, they cracked in the 93rd minute on a goal from Do Couto.
8 goals scored in four games, only one victory
S. Mill: “I can’t explain. It’s recurring, it’s incredible! It feels like it’s inevitable. I can’t question the will of the boys. They fought like dogs. We score two goals in every game. In the last four games, we scored two goals each time, and we only won one. It shows how complicated it is. There is a difference with the QRM match is that there, we were outnumbered. We concede a lot of goals in the last moments and when we find ourselves with ten, it only amplifies the phenomenon”.
“Tonight is the pinnacle, which is linked to the day we spent, which was memorable and dantesque. We leave very disappointed but it’s difficult. Each time, we leave people to think that we is on the right path and we never manage to conclude. It becomes tiresome, annoying and frustrating. We have had zero success, nothing for us since the start of the season. Us, if we make a mistake, we pay for it. Those who want continue to encourage us will be welcome because we will need it.”
In the next match, Monday 24 January, the SM Caen will host AC Ajaccio, 3rd in the championship with two games and two points less than Sochaux, the new leader. This will be the first match in 2022 at the Ornano stadium. Five days later, the Caen enclosure will host the late match against Niort. Two confrontations that will have to be negotiated or risk being stuck in the depths of the rankings for a long time.
