Sporting Club de Toulon, although riddled with unavailable players in attack (Sao, Belkassam, Bamba, Constant) undoubtedly had their best match of the season at Bon Rencontre. This was not enough against a great team from Rumilly Vallière but the progress is real.

Indeed, led 1-0 rather quickly following a counter strike taking Dilo against the grain (16th) the Azur and Or were able to react first thanks to the address of Hsissane on a winning half-volley at the second consecutive post to a well-adjusted free kick from Tertereau 1-1 (25th). Then it was Delgado who placed a masterful header at the start of the 2nd half following a corner from Tertereau, the new chief fireworks 2-1 (48th). The super timing of “Manu” allowing him to anticipate the exit of the opposing goalkeeper. A great reward for the Toulon striker who is still so hardworking and generous. The big regret comes from the equalizer conceded following a combination on a corner when the staff had warned. Moreover, Moulet’s supposed fault is not obvious. But Mr. Rouquette quickly granted the penalty transformed as dry 2-2 (62nd) as he also often left to play excessively making the meeting more and more tense over the minutes.

El Hamzaoui above the lot

To remember the big match of the left side El Hamzaoui, author of a sublime strike out of his skylight by the opposing goalkeeper (69th), the confirmation of the Ouasfane-Labor axis really strong. Hats off to Tertereau who was decisive for his first time at Bon Rencontre, and to Moulet who happily regained his position at Pontet, namely a left eccentric midfielder. For his part, Hsissane alternated between the good and the less good but his goal was magnificent while in attack Delgado was invaluable by his activity, defensive work and in handing over. On the right side Diop and Gomez gave their all with waste while Diallo struggled to be influential at the top. Clearly with the return of injured people like Sao and Belkassam there is reason to be optimistic for the matches against Lyon 2 and Saint Priest. For Bamba, we will have to be patient because his suspension is long while Constant has undoubtedly ended his season following his injury in Jura Sud …
