For the 8th match-day of the championship
Strasbourg played away against Ajaccio who were 10th.
In spite of their current classification , Strasbourg
were favourites for this game. Before this match, Strasbourg
were 19th and so in the relegation zone, so a victory
was nothing less than a practical requirement.
Hosny was not in the team because of his sending off
against Paris SG, and he will be absent against Toulouse
too.
It was a match dominated by Ac Ajaccio, the first period
in particular, thanks to the Algerian international
Rafik Saïfi, who was a poison for Strasbourg’s
defenders Karim Haggui and Cedric Kanté.
Strasbourg were not really dangerous in these first
45 minutes.

On the other hand, the second period was totally in the advantage
of Hosny’s partners. They played good football with a
lot of attempts on goal. In the 70th minute, Pagis, the striker
of the team missed a wonderful attempt just near the right
post.
The final result was a disappointing 0-0.
Strasbourg stay 19th with only 5 points. The situation is
becoming critical for the team and the coach Jacky Dugueperroux.
Last year Strasbourg had counted the same number of points
as this season after 7 days of the championship. The Strasbourgeois
trainer Kambouaré had been replaced then.
Strasbourg must react immediately or it will be relegation
into the 2nd division!
The next match is at home against Toulouse who are currently
17th. They must have a great performance this Saturday.
Hosny will come back against Troyes. EgyptianPlayers.com
hope for a victory for his team before his come back...
