Act two. This Sunday, August 14, 2022, 3 p.m., the Toulouse Football Club moves on the lawn Troyes (Dawn) on behalf of the second day of League 1. And after getting the draw at home againstOGC Nice (1-1), the men of Philippe Montanier hope to offer themselves their first victory of the season against a competitor in maintenance.
Troyes wants to get its first points
Against them, the Violets will find a team motivated by the idea of taking their first points of the season.
Versus Montpellier (Hérault), last weekend, the Trojans did not go far… But faced with a Teji Savanier on fire under the blazing sun of the Stade de la Mosson, the partner club of Manchester City (England) could only lose with the score of 3 goals to 2.
Toulouse atomized Troyes in a friendly
During the preseason, Toulouse and Troyes had already crossed paths. And the least we can say is that the meeting had turned to the advantage of the Violets.
The teammates of Rafael Ratao had atomized their opponents with the score of 6 goals to 1. The twirling Brazilian had scored, just like Yanis Begraoui, Brecht Dejaegere, Fares Chaibi and Kalidou Sidibe. The Trojans had also scored against their side.
Asked at a press conference about this rout, the Trojan coach Bruno Irles admitted that the gap between the two teams was significant at the time. This would no longer be the case today.
Farès Chaïbi will miss the trip
For this trip to Aube land, Philippe Montanier will not be able to count on one of the big winners of the summer preparation: Fares Chaibi. The one who started for the first game of the season has just been exploited appendicitis.
Kalidou Sidibe will also be absent. The slender midfielder is resolutely committed to Quevilly-Rouen (Ligue 2), Saturday August 13. As a reminder, it was there that the Pitchoun had been loaned last season.
