THE Strasbourg Racing Club can it become the third French club to win a European Cup after Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain? This is the gift that many Alsatian supporters will ask for under their tree during the holidays… And given the progress of Liam Rosenior’s team in this Conference League, all dreams are allowed.
This Thursday, Strasbourg should win against Breidablik to finish the regular phase in first place. And Racing succeeded in its mission. Despite some weak moments, the residents of Meineu were able to avoid the trap set by the Icelandic team to sign a saving victory (3-1). Godo (2-1, 80th) and Enciso (3-1, 90th + 4) released their team at the end of the match, attrition, after Gunnlaugsson (1-1, 37th) responded to Nanasi’s quick opening score (1-0, 11th).
Strasbourg will be favored in 2026
By completing this first part of the competition with the title of best student of the League phase, Strasbourg obviously secured a place in the round of 16, but Racing achieved a little more than that. The Alsatians will have the privilege of hosting at Meinau during the direct elimination phase. One more advantage for drawing the contours of a fantastic epic.
