17:28
BOAKYE ! 1-1 (27th)

17:25
Belkhdim remains on the ground: 1-1 (24th)
The Angevin midfielder took a blow to the face during a duel. He is taken care of by the trainers and should be able to return to his place.

17:16
GOAL CANCELED! 1-0 (15th)
The referee of the match, helped by his video assistants, indicates that players entered the penalty area before the penalty. The goal is therefore cancelled…And the penalty must be withdrawn!

BUUUUUUT THE BOAKYE ! 1-1 (14e)
In the wake of the missed penalty, Augustine Boakye regains the ball and manages to score with the help of the post!

EKWAAAAAH : 1-0 (10th)
After a great collective sequence, the Saint-Etienne midfielder took his chance near the penalty area. His shot goes off well…but goes just over the top! Great reaction from the Greens!
17:11
The Greens must react: 1-0 (10th)
Surprised by this first Angevin attack, the Stéphanois will have to be more solid and more enterprising to return to the match.
17:09
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT D’ANGERS! 1-0 (7th)
OH THE PURPOSE OF THE SCO! On the first Angevin shift of the match, Jim Allevinah overflows on the right side and crosses to the ground for Himad Abdelli. The playmaker controls the ball, eliminates Yunis Abdelhamid with a small hook before finding the net with a small flat foot!
17:07
There is very little rhythm in these first minutes of play: 0-0 (6th)
For the moment, we are witnessing a (nice) battle in midfield, with numerous duels…and a lot of ball losses.
17:04
Neither team can get a foot on the ball: 0-0 (3rd)
There is a lot of technical waste on both sides at the start of the match. Both teams have difficulty stringing together several passes.

16:44
The Greens in 4-3-3 with Abdelhamid and Davitashvili
Olivier Dall’Oglio made several changes compared to the match against RC Lens (0-2) last weekend. The Saint-Etienne coach kept the 4-3-3 system, with among others Younis Abdelhamid in the axis of defense and Davitashvili of Zuri on the left side of the attack, but upset his midfield, starting Benjamin Bouchouariand his attack, trusting Lucas Stassin cutting edge.
The Saint-Etienne eleven: Larsonneur – Appiah, Abdelhamid (cap.), Nade, Petrot – Mouton, Ekwah, Bouchouari – Boakye, Stassin, Davitashvili
16:40
The SCO in 4-2-3-1 with Abdelli and Niane
For this important match, Alexandre Dujeux decided to renew exactly the same eleven as against Toulouse FC (1-1) last weekend. The Angevins will therefore start the meeting in 4-2-3-1 with in particular Jean-Eudes Aholou in the midfield, Himad Abdelli in the position of playmaker and of course Ibrahima Niane cutting edge.
The Angevin eleven : Fofana – Arcus, Biumla, Lefort, Hanin – Aholou, Belkhdim – Allevinah, Abdelli (cap.), El Melali – Niane

The challenges of the meeting
A duel of poorly ranked people. Angers SCO, penultimate in the standings with only four points, and AS Saint-Etienne, fourteenth with seven points, both need to win this Saturday afternoon with a view to the race for maintenance. ..and even more so in the face of a direct competitor. We should therefore witness a very competitive match which could count at the end of the season.
