Mauléon (8, 24 points) – Mérignac-Arlac (B) (7, 25 points), Saturday at 8pm at Stade Jean Lasserre.
“We must not forget that depending on the classification of the other groups, the eighth place can also be synonymous with demotion, specifies Pascal Bazzi, Mollion coach. Our aim is to win the last two games, which should be enough to keep moving forward. But we must focus First on this match against Merignac-Arlac (B), which we can pass if we succeed.”
Before that final race, Mullion’s trainer said he was proud of his group. “With this workforce, which has no experience at this level, I think our season has been very successful. Apart from our goalkeeper (Jonathan Ozolat) and Mathieu Solignac, who just turned 18, no other player has really experienced the regional level. This weekend, we know we will be able to count on our fans, who must come in great numbers. The Souletins like the state of mind we convey, that is, the state of wetting the shirt and playing with real values. Pascal Bazzi, who will be denied Baptiste Larramendi, and Shimon Idiart (defenders) ) and Dylan Richard (forward), to receive Merinac, it’s up to us to build on that trying to get that maintenance.

On the Portuguese side of Pau, victory is mandatory. Defeated last weekend at Boé Bon-Encontre (4-1), it is now five points behind seventh, Mérignac-Arlac (m). Hoping to stay in R2, they have no other choice but to win their last two meetings, on Saturday (7pm) against Stade Montois (B) and then two weeks later at Confluent Foot 47.
In this fierce battle for maintenance, we must see more clearly at the end of this penultimate day, which can be already fatal for some teams …
