The match should have taken place on November 12, but storm Ciaran forced the LFP to postpone it. This Thursday, Brest hosted Strasbourg as part of the 12th day of Ligue 1. And despite a clear territorial domination of the Brestois, the two teams parted in a draw which really does not suit anyone. 7th, Stade Brestois loses its place among the future European qualifiers. 13th, Strasbourg does not move away from the red zone.
Despite Brest’s possession, it was Strasbourg who had the first opportunity of the game, in the 29th minute. The South African Lebo Mothiba, however, failed to deceive Marco Bizot, author of an authoritarian exit at the attacker’s feet. Fifteen minutes later, while the two teams were preparing to return to the locker room, Jérémy Le Douaron was more skillful to slip the ball between the legs of Matz Sels, giving his colors the advantage.
The second period was rather calm. Calm, Eric Roy’s men tried to keep the ball and maintain their advantage. But it was not enough. In the 79th minute, the Dutchman Emanuel Emegha, who entered the game in the first half in place of the injured Ismaël Doukouré, was at the conclusion of a good movement in the Breton area. Well served by Moise Sahi, the attacker only had to push the ball to the back of the line to convert this great opportunity.
Despite this hard blow, Brest had not said its last word. Pushed by a rediscovered Francis-Le Blé stadium and very vocal, the Brestois obtained a final opportunity in stoppage time, but Mahdi Camara’s attempt ended its race at the foot of the right post of the Belgian goalkeeper of Strasbourg. Both teams must ultimately settle for a point and a status quo in the Ligue 1 standings.
