Scheduling a Paris FC-Fleury derby on a Sunday at 12:45 p.m. at the Charléty stadium in Paris is the guarantee of having sparse stands and an atmosphere worthy of a friendly match.
Not really a good ad for women's football.
We can also add the condition of Charléty's lawn, which absorbed its 3rd match in 9 days, and which inevitably deteriorated over the course of the match... Charléty's gardeners now have a little more than 15 days from now the next L2 match (Paris FC-Pau on January 31) to restore it to an acceptable pace.
Under these conditions, unlike the first leg, stormy and electric, this derby with the stake of 3rd place, took place with a moderate commitment.
And Fleury was able to let the storm pass in the first period to create a great feeling.
In 13 confrontations since 2017 that clubs have faced each other in D1, this is the first time that Pascal Bovis' club has managed to beat Paris FC (0-2).
A success that took shape at the end of the match on two set pieces.
“We broke a glass ceiling, it's the first time we've beaten a Top 3 team. Before, it was 4 or 6-0, smiles coach Fabrice Abriel.
You have to realize that you have the qualities and the mind for it.
It's been a logical progression since I arrived two years ago.
With each confrontation, we got closer and we narrowed the gap.
This Paris FC team no longer scares us.
Today, we are winning but we have been working for this for a long time.
We were well aware of the strengths of Paris FC and we tried to do what they are used to doing.

“The teams are progressing and it is getting closer and closer”
A week after its elimination in the Coupe de France in Reims (5-3), Paris FC therefore again tripped over the carpet.
After the defeat of the L2 on Friday in Annecy (2-0), the dark weekend continued for the club.
With the same causes and the same effects.
Like their L2 counterparts, the Paris FC girls should have led at halftime.
But they missed big situations and also fell on a goalkeeper, Manon Heil, decisive several times, especially against Clara Mateo (35th).
“The high level, that's it, sighs Sandrine Soubeyrand.
From the moment you are unable to score a goal, you are never safe from a set piece.
That's what happened.
I am frustrated because in view of our first period, there was a way to do much better.
Fleury managed to counter us.
This defeat shows that all the teams are progressing, that it is getting tighter and tighter.
We have to show a lot more.
Today, we are in our place with regard to what we offer.

Paris FC indeed lost the 3rd place it had occupied for several months.
Montpellier climbs on the podium (22 pts) ahead of Fleury (4th, 21 pts) and Paris FC (5th, 21 pts but not as good a particular goal average as Fleury now).
It will be necessary to count on Fleury who has just recruited the French international Valérie Gauvin, back from the United States, who is continuing her fitness before starting.
It may be Friday against PSG (9 p.m. in Bondoufle), a match that promises.
"We will be at home, I hope there will be people to encourage us and experience the end of the season as we want to experience it, that is to say at the top of the ranking", warns Fabrice Abriel .
