Bad start to the year for the Toulouse Football Club and for its world champion, Djibril Sidibé. Badly beaten by the autumn champion Lensois this Friday evening, at the opening of the 17th day of Ligue 1 (0-3), the Violets saw their defender evacuated on a stretcher at the end of the match, after a bad blow to the head.
It was on the action of the third Lensois goal, at the end of added time in the second period, that Sidibé was hit by the scorer Pierre-Ismaëlo Ganiou. Dried, he remains on the ground for many minutes, taken care of by medical teams.
He “behaves normally”
Leaving to the applause of the Stadium after almost ten minutes on the ground, with neck brace and survival blanket, the 33-year-old player inevitably caused concern. His coach, Carles Martínez Novell, reassured at the Ligue 1 + microphone after the match. « I was able to speak with him, he is better and behaves normally. We will follow the League’s concussion protocol,” he declared.
