Precious victory for TFC at Sochaux

2021-01-25T21:58:36.322Z


Toulouse follows the rhythm of the competition: after the victories of Ligue 2 leaders Troyes and Clermont, Téfécé climbed Monday to 2nd place in the championship thanks to their 1-0 victory at Sochaux.


At the Auguste-Bonal stadium, the Occitans won thanks to a goal from their defender Bafodé Diakité (54th), and confirmed their good form five days from a shock against Clermont (3rd), which the Toulouse dislodged from the place of dolphin.

Contested under sometimes abundant snowflakes, the closing match of the 21st day of Ligue 2 did not have an observation round.

From the first minutes, Sochaliens and Toulousains circulated the ball from one rectangle to another.

But it is on a stopped phase - a free kick from Gaëtan Weissbeck pushed back by the crossbar of Maxime Dupé - that the Sochaliens planted the first banner of the match (21st).

Four minutes later, the head of Toulousain Vakoun Bayo was deflected by FCSM goalkeeper Maxence Prévot.

Despite a huge Sochaux opportunity in the 31st, with two saves on the line of Dupé and defender Deiver Machado, the two teams returned to the locker room back to back.

The Trojan leader threatened

For the second Ligue 2 attack (39 goals out of the first 20 matches), the deliverance finally came from Diakité shortly after the return from the locker room.

On a corner kick from the right, the n ° 19 deflected victoriously with a header a strike from his teammate Kelvin Amian.

In the championship standings, Toulouse is now 2nd with 42 points, two less than Troyes.

Clermont (40 points) completes the podium while Sochaux remains 7th with 28 units.

In addition to the Toulouse-Clermont shock, the 22nd day, fully contested on Saturday, will pit Troyes and Auxerre (5th).
