In Niort, Sochaux is in his garden. If the Chamois are at Bonal by winning there regularly in recent seasons, the FCSM returns the favor by often winning the bet on the green lawn of the René Gaillard stadium. And the tradition continues this Tuesday evening with the third success in a row for the yellow and blue in the Deux-Sèvres. The Sochaliens win 3 to 1 at the end of a very open meeting and largely controlled by the men of Omar Daf who erased their poor performance against Guingamp. Only regret, 5th place is still five points!
A fresh and winning team
With 6 new players at kick-off compared to the Guingamp match, Omar Daf clearly wanted to bet on freshness to win this duel against the Chamois. Winning bet with a perfectly mastered first half hour rewarded by two goals of Steve Ambri (12th) and Adama Niane (29th) that the goal of Mendès (31st) nevertheless cooled somewhat.
Niort at 10 and Weissbeck’s 10th goal
In the second half, Niort pushes but Sochaux resists with a Maxence Prévot intractable in his cages. Then comes the end of the hopes of the Chamois with the expulsion of their defender Yomga for a foul on Ambri. At 11 against 10, the FCSM sets foot on the ball and carries the blow to the 83rd minute with Gaëtan Weissbeck’s penalty (his 10th personal goal) following a failed exit by the Niort goalkeeper on Bedia.

This 3rd victory in a row away from home is nevertheless somewhat spoiled by Paris FC. The Parisians, winners on the Dunkirk gong (1-0), indeed grab 5th place in Auxerre, held in check at Amiens (1-1), and suddenly leave the yellow and blue, always 7th, and still five units away from 5th place. Nothing to discourage Steve Ambri’s teammates “As the coach told us, we have to win all our matches.” There are ten left, and Sochaux has obviously not said his last word.
Concern for Ndiaye
Before the arrival of Châteauroux, the red lantern of Ligue 2, in 10 days in Bonal, place this Saturday in the 16th final of the Coupe de France in Lyon. A gala poster for Sochaliens ready to foil all odds but who will certainly be deprived of Rassoul Ndiaye, released within a quarter of an hour of play against Niort, injured knee. The young Sochaux midfielder must take additional exams on Wednesday to find out the severity of his injury.
