Improvement For Stade de Reims In October!!
It was a much better month for Stade de Reims as they only lost two league games in October. This is a significant improvement from last month's three defeats, as they also picked up four points to add to their tally. They also played in the Coupe De La Ligue but you will find the results below. Manager Zinedine Zidane said " We performed much better against the top sides and I remain confident that we will survive relegation." So let's take a look back at October's results for Zidane and his team.
The Cup Match:
Nicolas Anelka proved to be a good substitution after coming on in the 82nd minute and scoring the goal that put Stade de Reims into the lead.
League Table:
Now we move to the monthly awards and for the third time in a row, the Player Of The Month award goes to 24 year old Brazilian winger Diego. Not only did he score, but he also made some great runs down the left flank and set up the equalizing goal in the league against SC Bastia. He does not win the award for Goal Of The Month for the third consecutive time however. Instead the award goes to 23 year old Dane, Mads Albæk, who scored the opening goal against Guingamp after being played a lovely through ball by new signing Fabinho. He went 1-on-1 with the keeper and from 20 yards out,struck the ball low to the keepers left.
Diego has won the Player Of The Month award three times in a row.
Mads Albæk won the Goal Of The Month award for October.
Congratulations to both of the lads. Join us again next month.
