Facing Grenoble, Bassette has 4 minutes and 30 seconds to make the difference. “The coach asked me tobring my speed, something that I couldn’t really exploit with the minutes I had. So I had to bring something else…“, he confided for the site Actu. Seconds pass and the score does not change until the locals get a final corner. Moment chosen by Norman Bassette to get out of his box. The Belgian, at the reception of a center deflected by Hugo Vandermerschscores with a nice whim, offers victory to his family and takes the opportunity to score his first goal among the professionals (2-1, 90+4′).
A liberating goal for Bassette, who nevertheless keeps her feet on the ground: “I went home and tried to bring as much as possible. I take the minutes given to me to the fullest because I love the club and the supporters. I can only give them that. But this is only the beginning. Monday I go back to work and it will be behind me. I have to keep working to add more. Today, I had 4 minutes 30, but they are what will allow me to be happy all weekend“.
Sixth in Ligue 2, Caen is now 6 lengths behind Bordeaux, holder of 2nd place which offers access to Ligue 1.
