Metz vs Sochaux

Metz struggled to win in order to maintain a distance at the top of the standings. It was Sochaux who became the enemy on match day 28 Ligue 2 at Stade Saint-Symphorien.

Until today Metz is still at home leading the ladder with a difference of 3 points. The distance should be able to widen if Tuesday (5/3) then did not reach the 2-2 draw from home to Le Havre. In fact, they first missed 2 goals before chasing through the action of Farid Boulaya and Opa Nguette starting in the 63rd minute.

The draw at least keeps Metz’s unbeatable trend built since last month, now with 2 wins and 2 draws. The entire victory was claimed when appearing on Symphorien with a score of 1-0 and 2-0 against AS Beziers and Paris FC. This fact makes them still confident in welcoming the match tomorrow.

Moving to the next camp, Sochaux successfully added the fast of victory to 4 consecutive games after Saturday (2/3) then buried 4 goals without reply by Nancy. All of these goals were created after Olivier Verdon was red carded on 66 minutes. In fact, in the previous 3 games they also failed to score when playing with Beziers, then lost to Lens and Orleans.

As a result of the crisis, Sochaux is now down to number 18 with a distance of 3 points from the position of caretaker. They also lost 1-2 to Metz in the first meeting of the season which was fulfilled by Madger Gomes’ red card in the 80th minute, while the final game at Symphorien ended with a 1-0 win for the hosts which was marked by a red card for each side.
