Football: in National 3, the post-Malek period begins for Alès, Beaucaire on the rise and Aigues-Mortes wants to confirm

After OM, Aigues-Mortais intend to bring down MHSC's. MIDI LIBRE – ERIC DOLADILLE

For the 14th day of National 3, this weekend, OAC, away to Agde, and Beaucaire, who host Fos, play the 3rd and 2nd of group J. Aigues-Mortes hosts the MHSC reserve team.

Alès at the time of confirmation

The reception of Agde will be the first since the departure to Martigues (L2) of coach Hakim Malek. His successor has not yet been found, it is the assistant Christophe Bosne-Vialet who ensures the interim. He was already at the helm, last Saturday, during the stunning success against Rousset, the undefeated leader (3-2), Malek being absent for family reasons.

''The circumstances in which this success was obtained have done moral good. The group seems determined to bring back a positive result from Agde'', underlines Bosne-Vialet, who will be without Hamek and Duvoux, injured, but will be able to count on Mollo, back from suspension, and Hamard, defensive recruit who arrived at the beginning of the week from Avranches.

Today is the time for confirmation. In Agde, facing a team tied on points with them, Lucas Franco and his teammates will be keen to show that their reaction to Rousset was not a waste of time.

Alès (3rd, 21 pts) plays Agde (3rd, 21 pts) on Saturday, January 25 at 6 p.m., Stade Louis-Sanguin.

At the end of the season, barring a catastrophe, Beaucaire will not be relegated to Regional 1. ''Apart from Rousset, the leader, everyone must look behind'', warns coach Sofyan Carletta. On the contrary, the Stade should be a little short of hope to see National 2 during the next exercise.

''If we finish in the top 5, we will have had a good season, assures Carletta. The goal is to stay there as long as possible, to try to progress without making the same mistakes.''
Capable of beating Alès (1-0), a promotion contender, at Schneider, Beaucaire conceded two defeats against relegation-prone Sud FC (1-2) and Villefranche (0-2). ''In training, the Stade coach emphasizes, the level of demand must always be high, not just before big matches.''

This Saturday, we should therefore find the “real” Beaucaire team since it hosts the second in group J, Étoile sportive fosseenne: ''It's a good opportunity to redeem ourselves from the defeat in Villefranche and also to situate ourselves in relation to the best in the Championship.''

Beaucaire (5th, 20 pts) hosts Fos (2nd, 24 pts), Saturday January 25 at 6 p.m., Philibert-Schneider stadium.

Aigues-Mortes has reserves

And if the promoted Aigues-Mortes was in the process of seeking its maintenance? ''Since mid-November, we've been better'', observes coach Yohan Borg. His team, which has 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat and is three points ahead of the red zone, is having a great season, never really dropping out of the games, ''except the first halves at Rousset (1-3) and Sud FC (0-2)''.

USSA, in particular, has its benchmark match, a resounding victory (3-0), last Saturday, on the OM reserve pitch. ''We did a great job. Winning 3-0 in Marseille, I don't know if anyone has ever done it'', exclaims the technician of a team that also defeated 1-0, at home, Fos, the runner-up to the leader Roussset.

The Saliniers like the “big guys”. That's pretty good timing. On paper, the MHSC reserve team remains one. ''Achieving a feat after a feat, I don't know if anyone has managed it, notes Borg, cautiously. The hardest thing, when you've had a big match, is to be as vigilant and attentive behind it. This can give confidence, but we must not fall into overconfidence.''

Aigues-Mortes (7th, 16 pts) receives MHSC II (10th, 16 pts), Sunday January 26 at 2:30 p.m., Maurice-Fontaine stadium.
