For the last match of the season at Polygone, Rochefort beat Brive in front of well -stocked stands. The match was pleasant, but apart from the injury of de Oliveira Maïa (suspicion of rupture of the tendon of Achilles) all alone, on a resumption of support, not much to note during the first half.
Half-time is whistled on this zero and virgin score that seems logical. And then, in the 64th minute, an action takes shape on the right wing of the RFC: de Sousa passes the ball to Caillas, which continues the action and addresses a center taken up victoriously from the head by Sebiro (1-0). The game was rebalanced then, the purring match as before the opening of the score. On a corner for Rochefort causing monster scraper in the surface of Brive, Martin sneaks and comes closely: 2-0 for Rochefort. The team, still struggling for its maintenance, exults.
Two points ahead
In the 83rd, a Brive attacker is dryly broke in the penalty area. The penalty is indisputable, impeccably executed by Balfoul. It is on this score of 2-1 that the meeting ends, at the end of which Aziz. Elaz, Brive’s coach, regretted that his players were “not at their usual level, especially in the first half”. While welcoming “combativeness and quality of play” Rochefortaises.
-Gaël Coureuil, his RFC counterpart, all smiles, was in the angels, declaring that he was “very satisfied with his players and the game produced”. Above all, this victory allows the Rochefort FC to be in a position of force before the last day to maintain itself. Indeed, before going to a Ja Isle already sentenced to R2 (Saturday May 17), he counts, just like ES Buxerolles, 27 points, while the first current relegation, namely Cozes and Neuville, count 25.
