After the victory against Clermont (3-2) last Sunday, their first success of the season, AS Saint-Etienne is obviously relieved. However, the scenario of his meetings does not encourage optimism for remaining in Ligue 1.
It took 13 Ligue 1 days to see AS Saint-Etienne’s first victory this season. Last Sunday, Claude Puel’s men pulled off a precious victory against Clermont, after a staggering scenario. The Greens were indeed behind until the 92nd minute. This kind of recovery is inevitably good for the morale of the Stéphanois, at least relieved to open their counter and leave the last place in the championship. But it will take a lot more, warns David Wantier, worried about this ASSE reaction.
” We can be relieved once there is a maintenance, tempered the former Greens recruiter in the live Instagram of host Farid Rouas. A victory does not make a season. We can be worried about this situation. The way the game went is worrying too, because you are down 2-0. What is interesting is that there is heart, desire in this team. It comes back to energy, but it’s been back to energy several times with the match against Lyon (1-1) where there is an equalizer in the last seconds. Well the scenario is pretty much the same. “
Wantier worried about the maintenance
” Except the defeat against Strasbourg (5-1) which comes to be inserted, Angers (2-2) is energy, Metz (1-1) it comes from a stratospheric goal from Wahbi Khazri and Clermont where there is I think a professional fault of Clermontois, said Saint Etienne striker Romain Hamouma’s agent. When we lead 2-0 in the 78th … I am very happy that Saint-Etienne won because I carry this club in my heart. But I’m worried because I find it hard to think that the hold is going to be easy to acquire. “Given the limits of its squad, ASSE will not be entitled to any relaxation this season.
