After three defeats in a row in the league, and a heavy but logical defeat against Barça in the Champions League, the Brestois moved forward this Saturday in Ligue 1. Facing Strasbourg, and on their land, Eric’s men Roy delivered a convincing performance punctuated by a favorable score of 3-1.
Lala was quick to give his team the advantage by converting a penalty obtained from an opposing handball in the area (1-0, 12e). Pereira Lage concluded a superb collective action before the break to allow the Bretons to make the break (2-0, 45e+1). In the second half, Ajorque had the luxury of missing a penalty, coming up against Petrovic (52e), but the RCSA was unable to take advantage of it, despite the reduction in the gap for a time ensured by Ouattara (2-1, 85e).
In added time, Del Castillo, who came on ten minutes earlier, closed the proceedings with finesse (3-1, 90e+2). With the key for Brest being a rise to 10e step. With three more points on the clock than Strasbourg 13e and thus weighed down by a fourth disappointment in a row. Worrying.
