Check out the program for the 13th and final day of the D1 Championship. Who will do the best operation before the winter break? Who will leave feathers? Hearts of Football conducted the investigation and gives you some elements of answer before the final verdict on the turf.
90 minutes, to change the situation and enjoy the truce
After a snatch victory in the fog of Essonne, Juvisy (4th) moves to La-Roche-sur-Yon (10th) to continue his races in the footsteps of the top three. If the 2 teams were separated on the score of 2 - 0 in favor of Gaëtane Thiney and his teammates, the Yonnaises had still held the draw throughout the 1st period or even a little more. Since then, Juvisy has had his ups and downs and must now continue to race as a pursuer. What about La Roche? A catchy team, which deserves sometimes that the wind turns a little more in its favor. Precisely, the wind is regularly invited on the grounds in Vendée!
On his side Soyaux (6th) will play his last encounter against one of his best enemies in D1, Paris Saint Germain (3rd), having finally returned to victory at home against Guingamp (4-1). As much to say it, it is a very committed meeting which will take place in Charléty and for which, it is hoped, the supporters will answer the call of the players to come to encourage them. After all, Christmas is a season of miracles, right?
4 meetings are scheduled Sunday, some will have to wait a little longer than others to enjoy a few days of well deserved rest. To begin for the amazons of Saint-Etienne (8th) who will have the heavy task to resist the intrepid sweeps (5th). The latter have clearly troubled PSG last weekend and no doubt they plan to do more for this last day of D1. An idea that could also germinate in the mind of Guingamp (9th), which is closer to the relegation zone, to prepare the reception of Montpellier (2nd). Can you imagine if they offered for Christmas, their first defeat in the championship to the players of Jean-Louis Saez?
The VGA Saint Maur (11th) is at the bottom of the rankings and not sure that the reception at home Albi (7th) can change something ... Whatever ... After what they showed in the 2nd period face in Lyon, everything can go very fast!
That it will be complicated for Nîmes (12th): receive the OL (1e) to close 2015, after a very short defeat against Montpellier, it is almost too much for a red lantern ...
The defense could be the best strategy against the scorers that are Ada Hegerberg, Lotta Schelin and Eugenie Le Sommer to name a few!
Let's hope that 2016 will be a little more lenient with the Nîmes promotions!
