Faced with penultimate Clermontois kick-off, Nicolas Usai’s men, lacking in attack and defending in defense for 46 minutes, suffered for a long time before scoring a second time, releasing a whole stadium in the last seconds (90th+3). The limpid shot of Boutaïb, at the ground, will not have deceived an immense Théo Guivarch (9 stops), who pushed in the feet of a thousand. The Toulousain thus sent the ball in the empty goal, and the PFC in L2 next season.
Almost kept
With 38 points on the clock after 30 days, the Palois are ten lengths ahead of the Auvergne, new barragists, while there are four days to play and twelve points to distribute. This 38th point came from far away, as the Béarnais suffered against Clermontois who now remain on twelve games without victory.
Mboup lacked efficiency but was clinical to equalize at the end of the first period.
NSABATHIER / PYRENEES PRESSE
Before the match, Johann Obiang awaited an answer from his teammates after the second 5-0 conceded this season, last Saturday in Lorient. It comes from the first seconds. In the wake of a determined Koudou, Pau Fc pierces the defense, the side tries his luck on a cross shot, slammed by Guivarch. This first opportunity, a handful of seconds after kick -off, sets the tone for the suite of the first act, which will prove to be completely unbridled. The attacks are soaring and the defenses suffer.
Effective Clermont
That of Pau FC is torture in the face of the speed of Bassouamina and customs as well as the technique of Henri Saivet. The former captain sanctions the Paloise feverishness by marking on a sublime strike rolled up at the entrance to the surface (11th), who came after a head-on strike from Bamba, herself successive to a missed recovery from Kouassi.
-To return to the score, the Palois will knock 11 times in this first period. In the 19th, a school counterattack ends with a shot at close range of Bangré, at the reception of a center of Koudou, but Guivarch interposes. The Clermont goalkeeper, with solid hands, again illustrated on a pivot shot from Mboup (24th).
Clermont has not won since January 10 and remains fragile defensively. The Palois do not take advantage of them and also leave immense opportunities to their opponent to prick them a second time. An a two Bassouamina-customs edge leads the latter against Kamara, beaten on a clever lob.
Often beaten, Kouassi saves his team by clearing the ball from the empty goal (41st). Very close to the Break 2-0, Clermont undergoes the equalization of Mboup, finally effective, at the fallout from a center of Koudou, a beautiful coiled of the right, at the penalty point, which ends up in the small net of Guivarch, in the additional time of the first act.
Irresistible Guivarch
If the Public of the Camp is left its headquarters for half-time the serene spirit, the takeover is catastrophic. After 27 seconds Bamba put Koudou in the wind and center at the second post for customs. Obiang’s ghost marking gives the right winger all the time to arm a crossed head that passes the goal line. Beusnard arrives too late and sees his team again carried out (46th). She reacts immediately but comes across a last Clermont rampart in a big night. Guivarch intervenes on the distant strike of Banggré then in front of the shot at close range of Mboup. Once again imprecise in the face of the goal, the Senegalese has a second chance but completely unscrews (52nd).
The homonym of the 1998 world champion shines in his cages and then dismisses an eccentric free kick from Bangré (57th), then a strike of a thousand (61st), omnipresent on Friday evening. The Béarnais manage to create opportunities but lack efficiency. The light will finally come from this issue of Soliste, in the surface, of the veteran Boutaïb, which opens the way of the goal and the gloves of Guivarch. Before a thousand appeared to tear a point that is worth a thousand in the fight for maintenance.
