The women of FC Metz lost 2-0 away to Saint-Malo and now firmly hold their place as relegation candidates.
Every matchday in the Second League championship, the women of the club are getting closer to relegation. After a frustrating draw last week against Grenoble, the players of FC Metz traveled to play against US Saint-Malo. Despite a strong first half performance, including hitting the post twice, Marine Morel’s team conceded two goals (Charpentier 06′ and Eninger 69′) and left empty-handed from their trip to Brittany.
The returns from injury of Seynabou Mbengue and Anaïs Ribeyra, whose late goal was disallowed for offside, unfortunately did not have the desired effect. The team is currently in second-to-last place in the standings, with Reims and Rodez increasing the gap with their respective draws. The situation is critical for the women’s team, as they only have five matches left to save themselves.
The next match for the Messines will take place on Sunday, April 5th at the training center in Frescaty, where they will host Le Mans.
