Football: in National 3, Alès and Aigues-Mortes on track, Beaucaire waiting

Antar Yalaoui and Alès will have no room for error against Sud FC. MIDI LIBRE – ALEXIS BETHUNE

For the 11th day of N3, Alès, Saturday December 14, and Aigues-Mortes, Sunday 15, receive, respectively Sud FC and Fos. As for Beaucaire, it is on vacation before time, its match in Lucciana having been postponed due to bad weather.

Beaucaire will not see Corsica and Lucciana

When they woke up on Friday, the Beaucairois thought they would spend part of their afternoon and night on a boat, embarked on a crossing to Corsica.
In the morning, however, coach Sofyan Carletta learned that the story… had fallen through.

''We received a call from the Lucciana management who informed us that there was bad weather, that the ground was not going well. In short…'', explained the Gard coach, a few hours before the postponement was made official by the FFF.

For the Stade, the calendar year will have ended with a resounding victory at home, and a festival of goals (6-0), last Saturday, against another Corsican team, Corte. A nice Christmas present in the hut.

Alès must not lose the north against the south

Beaten (1-3) last Saturday at Montpellier II, Alès missed a great opportunity to get closer to the podium. Instead, OAC, with one game less, is stuck in the soft underbelly, 6 points from said podium. Far, for the moment, from its objectives of promotion to N2.

So, inevitably, anger is brewing on social networks towards players and managers who are slow to respond to the demands of supporters, in terms of results. The receptions, eight days apart, of Sud FC and Cannet-Rocheville (match in arrears) could influence the immediate future of a team that two successes would revive.

''The championship is still long, everyone can beat everyone, defines the Cévennes coach, Hakim Malek, deprived of Benezet (gastro) but able to count on Mollo, called into the group.What worries me the most is conceding so many goals. I don't have a magic formula for that. We have to work again and again to improve defensively.''

Alès (9th, 12 points) hosts Sud FC (10th, 11 points), Saturday at 6 p.m., Pierre-Pibarot stadium.

Aigues-Mortes wants its Christmas present

If we talk about budget, Aigues-Mortes, which has the smallest in the group, outperforms. With the ball at their feet, on the other hand, 11th out of 14th in the standings, Yohan Borg's men – 2 wins in ten games, 4 draws, 4 defeats – are the first to be relegated.

''We have some regrets about a few matches, says defensive midfielder Théo Peyrard. We could have sometimes turned things to our advantage, but a few facts of play went against us. Otherwise, with a little more realism up front, some results could have been quite different. We deserve to be in the middle of the table based on the game we produced. We are above most of the teams at the bottom of the table.''

On Sunday, it is a team on the podium that bursts in: Etoile sportive Fosséenne. ''We would like to win and get out of this relegation zone, even if the championship is still long, notes Peyrard. And by winning, it would take away some of the regrets of some lost points.''

Aigues-Mortes (11th, 10 points) hosts Fos (2nd, 20 points), Sunday at 2:30 p.m., Maurice-Fontaine stadium.
