The successful operations of Kechta and Touré in the area of Le Havre, the failed exit of Davitashvili and Chaudron without his ultras … Find the tops and flops of the Normandy victory in Forez.
MANY
Touré week la doll
Abdoulaye Touré did it three times. But after two titles lost from close range (24th, 34th), the defensive midfielder of Le Havre wants his legs to launch his team on the way to victory in Saint-Etienne (0-2), Saturday for the 2nd day of Ligue 1. Incorrect “panenka”, or the ball thrown to the side, unfortunately, but the goal which allowed HAC to make the difference (57th). After him, the former player of Nantes will not have dropped his grip in midfield without forgetting to play his team, whose victory is deserved this Saturday.
Kechta took his gallon
All-purpose physique but a presence all the time. On the right, as on the left, but also and above all in midfield, where his knowledge of movement and passing has made Le Havre’s game more fluid, the young Moroccan continues to be important in HAC. A small waste, which does not involve his risk taking (10 ball losses), but constant generosity in the effort despite the size of the bag (1.74 m, 50% of the duels won). And a long shot that came close to hitting the mark, too (18th).

Desmas has saved everything
At first he did not worry, Arthur Desmas warmed up by turning with his finger an amazing strike from Mathieu Cafaro on his stick (27th). The start of a brilliant duel between two men, from which the Le Havre guard will always be victorious, both on a diving header (37th) and on two new attacks at the near post from the old Rémois (65th, 81st). Always well placed once the shots are on target, the former Clermont man also intervened in front of the incoming Louis Mouton, from distance (64th).

FLOPS
Davitashvhili is also in adaptation
Can do better. This is how Zuriko Davitashvili’s debut with AS Saint-Etienne can be summed up. The star recruit of the Loire transfer window, the Georgian attacker, who was bought from Bordeaux for 6 euros, does not know how to get out this Saturday. 33 small balloons, 7 lost in an hour spent on the Medow but than all the feeling of weakness on his right side. But for him, like other Saint-Etienne players, he is not used to L1, it is still time to adapt.
Appiah, failed entry
Coming in at rest to replace the young Marwann Nzuzi, quickly warned but curious on his way, Dennis Appiah stood out … by conceding a penalty. In an atypical way, moreover, by cutting Josué Casimir … with a header, after being unbalanced by Norman’s dribble. The right-back could have caught and restarted his team but his runaway cross was saved at the last minute by Loïc Nego (71st).
The Half Empty Cauldron
Failed reunification for the Cauldron with Ligue 1. Beyond the result, inevitable obstacle for the Greens, the absence of kops on each side of the field left a taste of unfinished business for the change Geoffroy-Guichard. This evening is nothing like a party, with these corners completely empty due to the lack of supporters stopping them from having a long party that they did not even dream of recently. The team will stay, of course, and all the Green people will be able to enjoy it.
