Saint-Etienne-Angers (3-3): crazy scenario and tensions at Geoffroy-Guichard but no frustrating for the Greens

A huge frustration. AS Saint-Etienne thought it had done the hardest against Angers on Saturday during the 23rd day of Ligue 1, by reversing a disability of two goals and taking the advantage before finally conceding a penalty in additional time. Bamba Dieng did not hesitate to transform this gift (3-3, 90th + 4), offered by the Stéphanoise recruit Maxime Bernauer.

This 13th penalty of the season, record in Ligue 1 in the 21st century, represents one more defensive error in a decidedly galley season. One too much? It is obviously early to say, but ASSE, still a barragist and now worse defense of the championship (53 goals conceded) shows, as it stands, too many deficiencies to hope to continue his stay in the elite.

Altercation between coaches after the match

Carried by a geoffroy-guichard in madness, where he gleaned almost all of his points this season (17 out of 19), Saint-Etienne has spoiled everything and continues a seventh row game without victory. He remains a barragist and could be relegated on Sunday if Le Havre Bat Toulouse (5:15 p.m.). His coach Eirik Horneland has only won once since his arrival in December, and showed all his frustration in an altercation with his counterpart Alexandre Dujeux.

The incident derived in collective scuffles, so much so that the referee had to expel Jean-Michel Badiane, the assistant coach of the SCO.

Ten minutes later, the tension was barely falling back, since the security forces had to intervene after jets of objects from the stands to the Angevin players. These were with their supporters to celebrate this point, which allows them to keep eight points ahead of the Greens and brings them closer to the maintenance.
