Saint Etienne Toulouse 0-1
Toulouse : Ben Yedder (22 ^th )

Saint-Etienne is breathless. Author of a start to the season blaring during the summer, the club forézien clearly stalling, diminished physically by the repetition of matches. Ligue 1 and Europa League combined, the Greens on Sunday conceded their fourth game without a win by losing to Toulouse (0-1). At the conclusion of a superb collective action during the first period, Ben Yedder confirmed his excellent form at the moment and scored the only goal left the meeting (0-1, 22 ^th ). Despite possession in their favor, the Greens were unable to impose their law. Of Saint-Etienne in trouble in the game, and very awkward in the last act, just like Corgnet. On the lookout for a rebound off Boucher, the leader of forézien game shot wide in front of goal (20 ^th ), before hitting the bar from close range (34 ^th ).

Private Erding and Hamouma, Christophe Galtier’s men were certainly more dominant in the second half, but they still lacked many sharp to force a decision. With only two shots on target in twenty attempts, and a host of set pieces poorly negotiated, the Greens hardly worried Occitan defense tightened and enforced. Only fear for Téfécé after the break: a failure to release Akpa Akpro flirting with the cross (48 ^th ). Trejo could extinguish the last local hope earlier (66 ^th ), but Toulouse is easily satisfied this short success, the second on the road this season. Three points that allow them to climb to sixth place, ahead of the Greens and the goal difference. For ASSE fell to eighth place, the international break comes at the right moment.
