Residents of Departmental 2, Espoirs of La Geneytouse have the terrible honor of hosting Trélissac FC, a National 3 team, this Sunday (3 pm). A big challenge for the Upper Viennese club that above all wants to present a good image.
Looks like they hit the jackpot. After the elimination of two District teams (Liginiac and Bersac), the Espoirs of La Geneytouse inherited Trélissac FC. A new opponent who plays in the five divisions above. “We have never faced a club at this level,” confirmed Sébastien Lévêque, general secretary of Espoirs de La Geneytouse. We played R2 teams like Panazol in the 5th round of 2020 (1-6). After that, we hope for a cheaper draw to try to get through one more round and get the jerseys. But playing an N3 at home, we sure wouldn’t spit on it. »
This is a big challenge that presents itself to the resident of Departmental 2 trained by Florent Couturas. Relegated from N2, Trélissac showed a good pedigree in the Coupe de France with this memory of a 32nd final lost on penalties against OM in Beaublanc in January 2020. Recently , in January, the Dordogne club held their own against Brest, 3rd in Ligue 1 (1-2) in the round of 16.
