After the devastating defeat against Nantes (2-6) on Sunday, Valenciennes is now on a direct path to relegation to Ligue 2, sparking understandable anger among supporters.
Striker Majeed Waris (22 years old, 13 starts and 9 goals in Ligue 1 in 2014), currently sidelined due to injury, expressed his empathy with the supporters’ frustration. “I know that feeling. I myself almost cried after the match,” tweeted the Ghanaian, who still holds hope for avoiding relegation.
With a six-point gap behind Guingamp, the first team above the relegation zone, VAFC must secure a win on Saturday at Roudourou. Reconciliation with the fans is imperative through this crucial match.
