Not helped by the refereeing, the Stéphanois lost on the Isle of Beauty against AC Ajaccio. A defeat which puts an end to ASSE’s series of five consecutive victories. Failing to appear truly dangerous throughout the match, Olivier Dall’Oglio’s men had a hard time coping with the absence of Ibrahim Sissoko. The Malian striker felt discomfort in his calf just before the match, costing him his place in the starting lineup lined up by the Greens coach.

Before the reception of the Girondins de Bordeaux this Saturday, April 20 at 7:00 p.m. for a duel of former Ligue 1 residents, concern is growing.

But at the calf level, he felt quite significant discomfort that he doesn’t usually have.so it was out of the question to make him debut, whatever it was, it was not possible. »

Since then, no communication has been made regarding a potential return date. If there were to be an absence against the Girondins, it would be a huge blow for the Greens who, this season, have repeatedly relied on Ibrahim Sissoko to get out of bad traps. Featured as one of the centerpieces of Olivier Dall’Oglio’s plans, Ibrahim Sissoko serves as ASSE’s true lucky charm. Indeed, the iconic French club has only won once this season without its Malian striker.

Faced with a Gironde team seeking to formalize its retention in Ligue 2, the task will be much less easy if by chance the absence of Ibrahim Sissoko is confirmed in the coming days. To be continued…
