A sequence full of emotion. And a match that will remain in the memory of Issiaga Sylla. The left back of Montpellier, holder against Nantes on Saturday during the 36th day of Ligue 1 (0-3), burst into tears at the end of the game. A few hours before this meeting in Nantes, he had learned of the death of his mother, but had wanted to play the meeting despite everything. In the 89th minute of play, the former Toulouse player burst into tears, consoled by most of his partners.
« We found out this morning. He was very dejectedsays Hérault coach Michel Der Zakarian. He decided to play with us anyway. He’s a good soldier. These are difficult things that happen in life. When you have lost a mother it is very complicated. »

May his mother rest in peace. »
