Le Parisien invites you to take a tour of the football program in Île-de-France. The weekend was marked by the return of the National with Red Star and Paris 13 Atletico at home, a 91 derby in National 2 between Fleury and Sainte-Geneviève, and the return of two long-time injured players from Paris FC ( Ousmane Kanté, Pierre-Yves Hamel) who resume with the reserve (N3) before soon returning to L2. There will be a Paris FC – Fleury derby which promises to be hot in D1 Arkema and a PSG – Montfermeil shock in U19.
The poster of the weekend: a women’s derby at stake in Charléty
At the end of the first leg, Paris FC, 3rd, had a three-point lead over Fleury (5th). The 3rd qualifying place for the preliminary round of the Champions League should be played between these two clubs and Montpellier. In terms of accounting, the derby which opposes Sunday (12:45 p.m. at Charléty) Paris FC and Fleury, who has just recruited the international Valérie Gauvain (not sure of making her debut on Sunday), is therefore likely to be decisive for the future. The first leg, on September 16 (1-1) was tense and stormy. Fleury had even finished the match at 9 against 11 after the red cards of Léa Le Garrec and Rosemonde Kouassi. “The conditions in which the match was played, I don’t like at all… There can be intensity, but that was the limit,” regretted Sandrine Soubeyrand, the PFC coach. The reunion promises to be lively on a lawn in Charléty which is still in danger of being catastrophic…
The PSG girls are playing a match without great danger on Friday evening against Rodez, last in the standings with only one victory since the start of the season.
The info: reduced sanction for the Red Star
Heard Monday by the CNOSF and Thursday by the higher commission of appeal of the FFF, the Red Star did not win the case. But his sanction of two games behind closed doors has been reduced. The Red Star will receive Châteauroux in an empty stadium this Friday during the 17th day of National. But for the coming of Sedan on February 3, only one grandstand will be closed. On November 4, during the match against Dunkirk, some supporters disrupted the broadcast on Canal + by disturbing the cameras with a laser.
“The actions of some supporters who had disrupted the broadcast of the match against Dunkirk on November 4, had led the FFF disciplinary committee to sanction Red Star FC with two matches behind closed doors, including one by revocation of the suspended sentence. inflicted against Sète during the 2021-2022 season. Sovereign, the higher commission of appeal decided to maintain the revocation of the reprieve by a total camera for the match of January 13 against Châteauroux. It has also decided, for the match on February 3 against Sedan, to close only the stand at the origin of the sanctioned actions, ”wrote the Red Star in a press release.
The question: how will the Bobigny players react to the loss of their leader’s chair on the green carpet?
Last Saturday, the players of FC Bobigny did the job on the ground by beating Haguenau (2-0) in a late match in Group B of National 2. A 5th success in a row which allowed them to seize the chair of leader. But on Tuesday, the leaders were heavily sanctioned by the DNCG with the loss of three points and an exclusion from the Coupe de France (for the 2nd consecutive year). A sanction with serious consequences in accounting terms since Bobigny now finds himself 2nd, one point behind Fleury (1st) and only two points ahead of Créteil (3rd). While the cards are therefore reshuffled in this group B, the players of Christophe Taine must negotiate a delicate trip to Épinal. Fifth but with two games behind, the Vosges club could potentially return to the race for the climb if successful against Bobigny.
The match to go to: an Essonne derby between Fleury and Sainte-Geneviève
The Essonne derbies between the two neighbors who maintain rather good relations outside, are often animated on the ground. This year, there will also be a real sporting challenge. Fleury has indeed just recovered its place as leader and Sainte-Geneviève (4th), who has had a good first part of the season despite its limited means, are indeed at the top of the table of group B of National 2.
The sentence: “We are going to go from 10,000 spectators to 100 or 150”, Stéphane Cabrelli (Linas-Montlhéry)
After his good performance against Lens last Saturday in the Coupe de France (0-2), Linas-Montlhéry will return to the ordinary of his National 3 championship where he is relegated, (11th) this Saturday against Entente SSG in Paul Desgouillons stadium. “We will keep lots of good memories of this epic. There is light on the club. But we will get back to our habits. We are going to go from 10,000 spectators to 100 or 150, it’s our daily life, ”smiled coach Stéphane Cabrelli.
The player to watch: Ousmane Kante (Paris FC), back nine months after his injury
Victim of a ruptured Achilles tendon on April 20 in L2 against Caen, Ousmane Kanté, the central defender of Paris FC finally sees the end of the tunnel. The Guinean international already lined up in a friendly match with the reserve last week, is playing his first official match this Saturday in National 3 against Mureaux. If all goes well, Ousmane Kanté, part of Paris FC since his arrival in 2018, should be able to return to L2 within a fortnight. Striker Pierre-Yves Hamel, injured since mid-September, also resumes with the reserve during this match against Les Mureaux.
Among young people: Montfermeil as a leader at PSG
Leader of group A of the U19 national championship with 4 points ahead of Lens, Montfermeil had a magnificent part of the season. The qualification for the playoffs seems well under way. Fabio Frasconi’s team is attacking the year 2023 with a trip to PSG, 4th and behind with 13 points behind Montfermeil. Papus Camara’s players already have five league defeats and were knocked out of the Gambardella Cup last Sunday by Lille (2-3). In the first leg, Montfermeil won (3-1) against PSG.
