Just a week ago, the level shown in Florence was worrying and was meant to be a continuation of previous meetings. Unable to follow the match against Martigues as it was only available to the press, Mainz remained the last training session to be watched by the Bayadins observers.
If it is impossible to ignore the goals conceded by MHSC and the serious defensive errors that were displayed, the Pailladins tried to build and offer something more consistent than usual. If the trend remains the same, that is, the use of the flanks and the speed of its wings, the attacks will be more constructive and possession will be Montpellier's during several key moments of the match. Note the good game at the Arnaud Nordin field and more inspiring Teji Savanier to go forward. The feeling that the players have nevertheless risen to a higher level one week before the resumption of the French league but with a record that remains limited to optimism.
With more success in front of the cage, especially for Akor Adams whose breakthrough clearly did not happen on Wednesday against the Ligue 1 club, Michel Der Zakarian's men could have returned to Hérault with a more satisfactory result and a more positive mindset. He missed it. At the same time, the generosity of the defense, very large and necessarily due also to the rapid exit of Modibo Sagnan, would have outdone MHSC in Germany. Without relying on a midfielder who is not sufficiently interested in this aspect. One week to prepare and hope to recover men capable of properly defending Benjamin Lecomte's surface.
